Kumaoni Cap with Aipan Inspired Geometric Patterns

This traditional Kumaoni cap in maroon features a prominent band of white geometric patterns around its base. The patterns consist of repetitive triangles and vertical dash motifs, drawing inspiration from Aipan art where similar designs are created using white Biswar (rice paste) on a Geru (red ochre) background. A distinct multicolored woven ribbon, displaying a checkered pattern of red, green, yellow, and grey blocks, is attached vertically and secured with a small golden decorative pin. Crafted from fabric, this cap is designed for personal wear.
