Canton crape
Sometimes specifically called English crape (crêpe anglais). For similar fabrics of other colours or material the French form crêpe n. (which has retained the wider meaning of the word) is now used by preference, though the English form also occurs with qualifications, as in Canton crape or China crape = crêpe de chine at crêpe n. 1, †crape-lesse = crêpe lisse at crêpe n. 1 a kind of crape without any wrinkling or ‘figure’; see also crape-cloth n. at Compounds 3 below. The ‘crape’ for which Norwich was formerly famous, was a plain cloth of silk warp and worsted weft, which afterwards degenerated into bombazine: see the latter word (quots. 1789 1831 at sense 2).extracted from crapen.
