Description:
Fez made of red felt turned inside out. The fez is adorned with a black silk tassel that entirely covers it. Starting from the top, this tassel is sewn by hand with stitches forming concentric circles and creating a tepeliki (turk. tepe = hill, summit) on top of the head. Another long tassel made of black silk threads hangs down the right side.
