According to correspondence in the object file, a researcher (the Curator of Costumes & Textiles from the Los Angeles County Museum of Art) from 1990 who observed these objects suggests that they "are "Amice -- a part of the clergy's vestment worn over the neck." The researcher also suggested that they are 17th century as opposed to 18th century.
