Extra large (85-90cm diameter) off-white Bamileke feather juju hat.

The Bamileke feather Juju hat is the perfect way of dressing up a blank wall. Traditionally worn by royal dancers during ceremonies held by the tribal chief in the Cameroon area of central Africa, they are believed to be a symbol of prosperity and beauty. Juju hats have gained popularity with interior designers over recent years and can often be seen featured in high end decor magazines.

The Juju hat comes in a wide range of vibrant colours. Each hat has been hand-crafted by a skilled artisan.

The headdress is made of natural or dyed chicken or wild bird feathers. The feathers have been painstakingly stitched onto a woven raffia support and can be unfolded by pulling on a leather strap on the back, opening out into an amazing circular hat. The headdress can also be re-folded into a basket shape when not is use, taking up a small amount of space and keeping the feathers safely protected inside.

Please note that due to the dyeing process of the feathers, there may be some variation from the photographe in the colours of each individual headdress.

We have these hats in three different sizes:

Extra large – 85 – 90cm diameter

Large – 70 – 80cm diameter

Small – 50 – 60cm diameter
