Aged Headband Cloth

Headbands for much of the 1800’s were made of simply patterned cloth over a cord core, and details like the right headbands make the difference between a “working” repair and a true restoration.  We’ve remade headbands a variety of ways over the years; from reconstructing with remnants of the original cloth to rolling inked patterns on with a brass embossing wheel and then aging to suit, but were delighted to find this cloth, already “stained” and ready to be formed.
