| This is a charming child's hat with lots of embroidered symbols. At the front are 7 silver Buddhas to guide the child. The phoenix birds at the back of the hat indicate that the hat is for a girl child and the silver bells at the back are to protect the child from evil spirits. The butterfly on the sides of the hat represent the "butterfly mother" of the Miao people. And, of course, the flowers, because the Miao people love flowers. The hat is in very good condition. It spans approx 9" wide and 7" in height. | ||||||
