Title
Lamanite Princess Headdress (White Feathers)
Description
This headdress has gold beading designs (in a rounded shape and a line shape), with a black velvet half cap. The beading on the front is in a zigzag pattern, continues to the back, and is secured with a strap around the back of the head. There are white feathers with gold ribbon detailing, which is displayed as a half circle surrounding the head to represent a white or gold aura or halo effect, often seen in depictions of religious figures or people of royalty. There is a bird detail at the top of the front of the head which is made with a half-sheer soft black body with a gold background, silver thread detailing, a woven gold beak with shimmery red eyes and tongue, and silver leather curled feathers.
