Hats Off to Asian Rice Farmers

 

Flat-topped hat made from sugar palm leaves, 37 cm in diameter.  The crown is 10 cm in height and 15 cm in diameter, and the brim is 11 cm wide.  The individual overlapping leaflets from the top of the crown to the brim are sown together, and there is no lining inside.  A band of woven palm leaf is placed at the junction of the crown and the brim, without any frame to support the leaves.
