Brick Red SPIRIT EYE Handloomed Beaded Hatband - Mountain Men Reproduction

Description

BRICK RED "SPIRIT EYE" HANDLOOMED BEADED HATBAND - Continuous Circle
This is a hand loomed beaded Native American hatband.  The hatband is made in a continuous circle with a base of upholstery thread.  It is made of size 11/0 seed beads and measures 1 3/8" across.  It does NOT have leather/cloth ties to get dirty or come unfastened.  It is also NOT made with a stretchy thread which will wear out over time and lose the integrity of the design by being pulled open.  The band is specifically made to fit YOUR hat.  It slips over the crown of the hat and fits snuggly at the base.
If you are a fan of the TV series "Mountain Men", you will recognize this design.  It is worn by the father and son team on that show.  This design can be custom made in any color combination you like.
My hatbands are produced of a mix of traditional and advanced beading methods.  The beads are a reproduction of the type used back in the 1700's to 1800's with slight irregularities.  My beading method incorporates an updated vertical edge which hides the raw edges of the thread and gives the piece a "finished" look.  It also protects the threads from wear.  I use a traditional Ojibwa loom.
Please submit the measurement of the crown of the hat on the outside where the band will sit within 1/16".
Production time for this hatband will be approximately 10 days.
ALL PURCHASES MADE AT THIS TIME WILL BE REQUIRE APPROXIMATELY 14 WEEKS DUE TO THE BACKLOG OF ORDERS.
THE ROUND DOME HAT SHOWN ABOVE IS FOR SALE SEPARATELY.  IT IS NOT INCLUDED IN THIS LISTING.  PLEASE CHECK MY STORE.
