Juju hat or Bamileke headdress originates from Northern Cameroon and is handmade consisting of dyed chicken feathers, stitched into a raffia basket. It is traditionally worn by royal dancers during ceremonies held by the Chief and symbolises prosperity. Believed to posses the positive nature of birds, it is an object of rare beauty and will create a "wow" statement when displayed on any wall.
