Headdress3010/1 a-c

Headdress of vibrantly coloured macaw, toucan and parrot feathers. Long bright blue feathers create a brim at front of headdress, coming to a point at centre. These are topped by a layer of shorter green and yellow feathers. Above the brim stands a crown of feathers arranged around the circular headband, very tall at front centre and shortening toward sides, lined in front with a set of shorter green and red feathers matching those on the brim. The bark headband is covered with small multicoloured feathers, with red fibre at the bottom. Three tall feathers stand upright on the rear of the headband. 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, some in small groupings gathered at their quills by short lengths of palm tubes, as well as elongated, dark brown seeds. Together the strands create a dense layer down the back of the wearer. To both sides of the headband are attached a string of seeds, ending in a flower shape, created by green, white and red feathers.
