Chinese Wedding Cap


This Chinese hat or cap is more like fascinator than an actual hat.


 The cap come up in images under Qing and Han Dynasty, I can only assume it was worn across both periods.



Used by nobles, emperors and as a modern wedding headpiece.


This hat is held in place by a tie, although it's more likely to have been pinned through and over a bun of hair, but I don't have anywhere near enough hair for that.


Also seen listed as a Chinese landlords hat
