There is no label in the hat so it could be a courtier or one of the Kings children.
I think it makes an excellent oriental courtiers hat.
I have many hats and regularly post a new picture of me in a different hat, cap or other headgear with a few facts about what I'm wearing.

Australian Bush Hat, that's what it says on the label
This hat is made of leather with a wide brim to protect the wearer from the sun and rain.
The leather is a bit mouldy but will easily polish out, whoever owned it last must have put it away damp.
