Pomegranate headpiece

Inspired by the colours and lush of pomegranates, this creation by milliner Deirdre is a joyful and lively headpiece. The fruits of the pomegranate were made from blocks of stiffened buckram, covered with buckram and with hand-dyed leather. These bases for the fruits were then decorated with hand sewn glass beads. The leaves were made from hand-dyed, wired leather. The base was made from hand-dyed silk velvet, blocked and wired to shape.
