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

Emperors Hat

Coronet, worn by emperors of the Han Dynasty.

This hat was worn by both emperors and empresses and actually 

I have listed this hat a from Han dynasty period but it continued on into later dynasties as well.

The Han Dynasty ran from 206 BC to 220 AD and is considered a golden age of China, it started Hanfu a written dress code which included hats, headwear and hairstyles.

This similar to the hat I previously blogged about is part of a wedding costume and made of mixture cardboard tube and shiny fabric and beads.
