In Szeklerland, women wore their hair in a bun, covering their head with a lace bonnet, called „csepesz”, tied under the chin. The colored one were worn on weekdays, while the black on holidays. In the Lower Ciuc, this bonnet was not part of the dowry, being a gift from the groom or the mother-in-law, while in the Upper Ciuc it was included in the paraphernalia. The cap, in the beginning, was made by a bonnet tailor master, then being sewn by the small artisans in the village. To create it, lace, glass beads and silk ribbons were used, later the so-called crested bun or Hungarian bonnet became fashionable. Transylvanian memoirist Apor Péter also mentioned: "there was not so much fashion on the heads, there was not so much crest". The wealthier the wearer was, the richer the lace was, but it was not proper to wear a luxuriously ornamented bonnet above the rank of the family. Worn by women both indoors and outdoors, the bonnet was also taken by them to the grave.
The presented one was worn at the beginning of the 20th century, in Dănești. It is made of black satin, cut in two pieces, with a crest made of four rows of lace, with blue ribbons inserted radially. The seam at the bun is hidden by a beaded and indented satin ribbon, and the lining is of shop cloth, so it probably belonged to a wealthy woman.
The bonnet with crest from Dănești can be viewed at the museum's ticket office from Tuesday to Sunday, daily from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
