The Juju hat, an increasingly popular, spectacularly beautiful design staple, is more than just a way to brighten up a room. In Cameroon, the country where unique hats originated, tribal chiefs and dignitaries wear the hats during official court ceremonies to make them stand apart from other citizens. In a bright red or purple or even a softer, subtler fluffy white, these Cameroonian jewels make a room stand out as well.

The subtlety of the contrast between the white feathers and the touch of black is such a quiet statement here. Especially if you might be moving or don't have a particular spot in mind for a Juju hat, this color combination could work with any decor.

The multicolored feathers of the Juju hat represent prosperity, wealth and the positive qualities associated with birds. And who couldn't use a little more prosperity?

The feathers of the Juju hat are hand-woven onto a raffia base and feature a unique folding design, which makes them easy to store, whether you're an important Cameroonian dancer or a person looking for a large, easy-to-move accessory.

African artifacts add a culturally diverse element to sedate or traditional rooms. Standing alone, the Juju hat is beautiful, but mixing it with other African art increases the overall impact.

| Over a fireplace, a Juju hat instantly becomes the focal point of a room. For a larger statement wall, we love the idea of mixing and matching the vibrant colors in which these hats are available. |

Art is an important part of any space, but sometimes two dimensions can fall a little flat. The three-dimensional quality of the Juju hat is one of its most impactful features, a sure way to add interest to a room.

| One of the most notable things about the Juju hat is the array of spectacular colors in which it is available. But if you want the look without the bold color, a subtle white hat can be gorgeous. The softness and texture of the white hats in this room are simply lovely. |

Many of these intricately made Juju hats come with a bit of a steep price tag. But when you consider that it takes a group of up to four craftsmen a couple of days to make just one, adding an authentic piece of a different culture to your home seems like a bargain.
