Formed in two halves joined medially by a turn along the crest of the comb, and by a riveted overlap at the front and rear of the brim. It has a rounded crown that curves down markedly at each side and rises to a high, file-roped medial comb; and an integral brim that is turned down at each side and curves up to an acute point at the front and the rear. The edge of the brim has a file-roped inward turn. The base of the crown is encircled by ten modern round-headed lining-rivets fitted with external brass rosette washers and internal octagonal washers that retain a leather lining-band. Each side of the crown is embossed in low relief with a large, vertically-symmetrical fleur-de-lis that, like the comb, is polished bright against a 'black from the hammer' ground in the 'black and white' fashion. The roping of the crest of the comb and the turned edges of the brim appears to be modern work.
