A percher headdress built from layered feathers in russet, gold, and cream, curved to sit at the front of the head. The construction is light and sculptural; the feathers do the work that later millinery trim would imitate. It is recorded with the piece as dating to the 1920s.

Curator's Note
Worn high and slightly forward, it changes the line of everything beneath it. A piece for a collector of early millinery as much as for wearing.
