Antique Bird Of Paradise Wide Brim Hat w Pink Tulle Scarf Plumes & Bird Head
A fabulous Downton abbey Edwardian style wide brim straw hat. With a genuine antique exotic Bird Of Paradise bird nesting on the front, with a brim swathed in pale pink tulle which makes a scarf for around the head or neck. This is a real antique bird of paradise, with his head and beak and glass eyes, vivid iridescent green throat feathers and beautiful flank plumes on butter cream colors. This was used in a film and is part costume hat, part genuine antique. The straw is two kinds, one looks like a macrame lace, very pretty. The hat has a old fashioned taffeta lining, but it is not attached to the hat. Head size is extra large, at about 24 around, perfect for sitting atop your grand Edwardian hair style. This would be wonderful to wear to a Titanic era or upcoming Downton Abbey event. Tulle is not sewn to the hat. See the photos and ask if you need more details. Thank you for looking!
