Pileolus (soli deo, zucchetto) worn by the pope,
seen in the shop window of the pope's tailor Ditta Annibale Gammarelli, Rome
The pope's pileolus is made of white silk with moiré-effect,
inside lined with very thin chamois leather to assure a better hold and, around the brim inside, a ribbon of white velvet.
