He completely changed the original Arab pattern to make what I consider a better shape. The one I have when tried on a haggard female Peales, slipped on perfectly and as the falcons shook her head it only went on better. When braces were closed, the fit was perfect.

Thanks for showing these.
Hello Dan, I have an Arab Hood John made me about 2 years ago, the style is very similar to the ones in the photos, I will ask John, I think the blue one was made in the late 70's .We talked about that hood awhile back.Here are some more. There is a hood with featherd plumes,, John did not make many, I have one but the one in the picture I think was just Sold on e.bay.
