Fur Hat of Viktoria Brezhneva

Circular fur hat in soft brown tones, attributed to Viktoria Brezhneva, wife of Soviet leader Leonid Brezhnev, likely worn during official winter ceremonies or diplomatic receptions in the 1960s or 1970s; the hat's rounded silhouette and plush texture reflect the era's preference for understated luxury and ceremonial elegance, blending traditional Russian aesthetics with socialist formality; its preserved condition and dark satin lining suggest careful use and symbolic value, possibly part of a curated ensemble designed to project warmth, dignity, and ideological continuity during Cold War state functions, offering a rare glimpse into the material culture of the Soviet Union and the visual language of power surrounding Leonid Brezhnev, now preserved among other evocative Soviet Artifacts.
