UZ22a  Turkoman Cap   
approx. 7-1/2" diameter
Uzbekistan / mid-20th Century

The shape of this cap tells us that is was made for a woman to wear. It is outstanding with  red velvet fabric over the fine stitch-work and braiding in cotton and silk threads! This photo does not show the small circle of denim-colored cotton with a 1" orange center at the very top of the cap which cannot be seen unless situated above the wearer!? The sides have a 'quilted' construction of three layers giving it a bit more body.
