Noun

lanifice ‎(plural lanifices)

1. (obsolete) Anything made of wool.

   The moth breedeth upon cloth and other lanifices; especially if they be laid up dankish and wet. — Francis Bacon.

   • 1974, Olwen H. Hufton, The poor of eighteenth-century France, 1750-1789

     If the lanifice (woollen manufacture) of Mende at least staggered into the closing years of the ancien regime, it only did so in a purely nominal sense.
