Summary
A silk or chiffon doll's bonnet (circa 1880 to circa 1900). The material has a top panel with the material worked across the top of the head. The other panel is worked from the side of the eyes around the back of the head, and would be fastened under the chin with a tape in the same material. The fabric could have been cream in its original colour but is darkened by time.
