The body of this baby's bonnet's exterior is a silver, quilted, Japanese silk satin with box pleated, frayed silk trim. The bonnet's brim has a wire edge to preserve its shape. There is a silk curtain attached at the bonnet's base which would have covered child's neck, suggesting that this is a girl's bonnet. Two blue ribbons are attached to the side of the bonnet to tie it under the child's chin. Inside the bonnet, there is a wadded duck egg blue silk brim. Holland linen was used at the crown and the whole hat is constructed in buckram.
