Rigid fabric headdress, from a Hungarian dance costume. Headdress is made of light blue silk covering a rigid support, peaked at centre top, narrowing at the edges where a strip of thin elastic joins the ends together at back. The outer side has looped patterns made of brown metal thread with flecks of gold. Tubular glass beads make a zigzag pattern along the top edge.
