Product Details

Intricate networks of interlacing cables adorn this cozy cap. The crown shaping, integrated into the cable patterning, creates a round motif at the top of the hat, which reminds me of an antique maritime compass and gives the name for this piece – a pelorus is a type of compass used for marine navigation.
