Cap

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The cap has a semi-circular shape with a green and yellow diamond patterned fabric. The diamond pattern covers most of the cap's surface, with a yellow and white herringbone textured fabric on the left edge. Three pink flowers with green leaves are embroidered on the lower left edge. A green ribbon is attached to the bottom of the cap, with frayed ends. The cap's background fabric is beige.
