COVETED, RARE & GORGEOUS 1930s' BLACK FABRIC DRAPED TURBAN

Many collectors covet turban hats because they are rare, and scarce. This gorgeous turban from the 1930s' is made of a black, almost see-through, grainy and shiny stretch fabric beautifully draped and gathered. At the front top there is a slightly stiff oval structure covered by the material, creating this most attractive and unusual shape. You can just picture a high society maven, or a celebrity wearing it to an event, making a smashing entrance. You can also picture yourself today making a grand entrance wearing this rare beauty.
