Description: This is vintage traditional Royal hat from West Africa. It is made of chocolate brown velvet embroidered with metallic gold and brown designs. It is lined with cotton twill fabric with hand stitched detailing around the brim. See close up photos. It measures 21 3/4" around and 7" tall. Condition: Good. No holes, tears or stains. We purchased the collection of late 19th and early 20th century Nigerian artifacts collected between approx. 1950-70. There are over 50 pieces with a focus on ceremonial, ritual and spiritual tools and also a collection of West African currency manilla bracelets. Many are rare museum quality pieces including Ifa Divination tools, cowrie shrines and fetishes and Eshu figures. Be sure to check my listings for the other pieces from the same collection. All the pieces have been privately held for the last 60+ years by the original collectors and are offered here for sale for the first time. Provenance will be provided to the winning buyer if requested.
