19th Century Antique Gold Gilt Metallic Embroidered Velvet German Folk Bonnet Cap both side views

This antique gold gilt metallic embroidered velvet German folk bonnet cap dates from the early 19th century. It is hand stitched, made of a cream color silk velvet fabric, with gold gilt bullion metal thread embroidery work outlining highlights, raised padded satin stitch embroidery couching work, hand sewn metallic sequins, jewel encrusted accents and gold lace rickrack trim edging the front. The inside is fully lined in a linen fabric which has some foxing faint age spots. This traditional ethnic European German folk costume cap bonnet would have been worn by the women of Munich, the Bavarian region in Germany from 1755 through about 1850.

This is a truly a rare and wonderful piece of early German textile folk art!
