Headdress
This category includes jewelry that is worn on the head, either singly or in a group.
Headdresses contain multiple items from wreaths and diadems to hair combs and rings. Most of these are made of precious metals and/or beads of semi-precious stone. Usually, the more elaborate the headdresses are, the higher the status of the person.
