Belle: High Crowned Victorian Spoon Bonnet
Belle is a lovely Mid-Victorian style spoon bonnet. While earlier bonnets of the 19th Century had lower brims, by mid-century Spoon Bonnets, which featured increasingly high brims and more elaborate trimmings, became the vogue. This high crowned spoon bonnet is made of tightly braided straw and features pointed edges on the brim, to allow for at "curtain" (bavolet) in the back to protect the neck from sun.
Trimmings include wide ribbon ties and bavolet (at back of neck), a lace lined brim, and flowers & berries to compliment your color scheme. Perfect for Civil War gatherings and reenactments.
Belle is also available as an untrimmed straw bonnet for your decorating pleasure.
