    I've got a real Irish regimental Piper's Caubeen here that I'll describe for you. The head band is 1 1/8 inches, lined and stiff. The top is just shy of 11.5 inches and sewn to an asymmetrical slightly coned doughnut piece. It is approx 3.5 inches tall where the brigade badge attaches, decreasing to a little over 2 inches where it is seamed in the back. Lining is quilted silk and there is a double snapped badge stiffener behind the brigade badge that attaches with a cotter pin through two loops. I posted a picture of it last night. http://www.xmarksthescot.com/forum/s...ad.php?t=20569
