Description
NOTE:  Pink silk is brighter in natural strong light as pics show, the dusty silk coloring is truest in artificial lighting.
A fantastic antique, Edwardian - c. 1910's, silk, lace and ribbon art boudoir or sleep/bed cap, hat, having a perfectly beautiful antique silk chenille tassel.   Silk coloring changes a bit with light source, as noted above and shown.  The center crown is  made with concentric rows of silk ribbons sewn onto a tulle ground, culminating in the center with ribbon base for the gorgeous silk chenille tassel.  Pink silk is gathered onto the tulle and finished around the bottom edges with a wide pleated net 'lace' and ribbon work border.  Simple & beautiful.
Seems like a drawer treasure, beautiful condition.  Rarely if ever worn.
Measures approx.  24-1/2" around at wavy ribbon edge on net lace.  No elastic, could be added if desired.  Tassel is 7" not including the hanging thread.  7-1/4" from ribbon edge to center peak when flat.
