Headdress3010/3 a-h

Headdress of macaw, toucan and parrot feathers. Brim made of woven palm bark, above a strip heavily wrapped with fine wool. On the outside of the brim are two layers of short blue and yellow feathers lying horizontally, with a layer of yellow feathers adhered upright to the woven rim. Behind this are seven upright, long painted tubes into which seven long blue and yellow feathers are inserted (parts b-h). Three bird wings with red and blue feathers are attached at the back of the brim. Below are tied several long strands of fibre, some threaded with small white glass beads. Intermittently down each strand are attached feathers in various sizes, in small groupings gathered at their quills by short lengths of palm tubes. Some strands include dark brown, elongated seeds. Together the strands would create a dense fall, down the back of the wearer.
