#6505 - c. 1848 RARE Evening Headdress Tiara of Lace and Ribbon "Curls"!  Just one quick look at this headdress and you immediately conjure up an antique ball!  I can just imagine her in her gown being helped out of the carriage. These are my favorite pieces... the ones that so easily evoke the era.   This one is quite rare in a tiara peaked shape with "curl" ribbons at the sides.  Excellent condition needing just a bit of a re-curling.  Tiny bows at the peak on the black lace. Lovely!  Please note that my poor Brigetta mannequin head has hardly any hair, so it will look a lot better on you, or your mannequin!
