Get It While It’s Hot: Cameroon Headdresses

I’m obsessed with these feather headdresses from the Cameroon. MUST get one. Known as JuJu hats, these are traditionally by royal dancers of the Bamileke tribe and symbolize wealth. From a purely shallow design perspective, they’re an amazing way to add a pop of color and texture to any room!

How cool does this white one look against the linen colored grasscloth wallpaper?

The pop of red really distracts you from the TV on the shelf below it

The ones I’ve seen are dyed chicken feathers. There are vintage ones available, but you’d be looking at much higher costs. A new one is around $400-$700. So fun and pretty.
