For those on my list who are into all things, French, Burgundian or 14th century (OK, its 15th c by 15 years!)
Archive.org has the two volume set of Inventaires de Jean duc de Berry (1401-1416) publiés et annotés par Jules Guiffrey (1894)

Volume 1
Volume 2

Jewelry, books, donations he made to chapels, his will and the execution of it. Inventory of 1416 starts on page 204 the section on Robes and Furs (Robes et Fourrurers) on page 247 and linens on p.248

I know that there are some authors who are really upset about Google Books, but for researchers its a wonderful tool!

Google has started adding old editions of the Anzeiger des Germanischen Nationalmuseums 1902-1903, By Germanisches Nationalmuseum Nürnberg

And I found this, Dorothea Hanns Wynnterin household inventory from 1486.

Lots of bedding, and some clothes, as well as a few paternosters. They also mention Sturtzen, including several different kinds, I'll have to look into this later.

I ran across this project tonight, Briefe adeliger Frauen. Its an online repository of transcribed letters, wills, inventories and marriage contracts pertaining to women of noble Austrian families.


Not everything is online, but a sampling is.
