It is made of curled feathers in pale blue and brown. As to the jewelry, it is outstanding. The gold loop clip has clusters of rubies terminating in a diamond sunburst effect. The wide gold bangle bracelet has a tailored bow design set with matching jewels. The ear clips are large gold flowers centered with clustered ru- bies. The adorable little dinner hat shown at the top tells its own story in a little sealskin pill box that takes on a side ruffle of exquisite black lace that flatters, whether it is worn with a pretty pastel frock as you see it here or with a slim-cblack dinner gown.
