The beautiful custom tailored zucchetto is available in your choice of 4 colors including black, church purple, red scarlet and white. The simple design is made in triangular sections and is designed to fit over just the dome of the skull. The cap is available in 4 sizes to fit a range of head sizes and measurements are listed next to each size to help you order the right piece.
The zucchetto is a small, form-fitting ecclesiastical cap that is worn by clerics and higher clergy. It began as a form of the Greek pilos, but was altered during the early Middle Ages to keep clerics' tonsured heads warm. The name is derived from the Italian word for a small gourd as it resembles half a pumpkin. In appearance, the zucchetto is similar to a Jewish kippah or yarmulke, though its use is very different.
