This is a beautiful, stunning piece of art. I was hoping to be able to wear it, since the description does state it is full sized. I am a woman with a small head – dear reader, it did not fit over my forehead. So if you are also wanting to buy this to wear it, please don’t. However, do please buy this for how wonderful it is to have in your collection and display.
