Could It Be?


Incidentally, while browsing around the home of the legendary impressively-tufted cardinalatial zuchetto, I came across a photo of, of a truly bizarre item, a white brocade biretta decorated with gold embroidery, an item of headgear never authorized to any rank of cleric within the Catholic Church. The captions are in German, so they remain a mystery to me, and while I don't want to resurrect that whole "what would Our Lord wear if He attended mass in choro" debate (it was a joke, people), I secretly suspect this may in fact be God's own personal hat.


Because a gold-embroidered brocade biretta would just be, you know, tacky, on anyone else.
