From not enough ‘ears’ to one too many, we now present an entirely black biretta with four blades. It is worn by clergy in some German dioceses, particularly the Diocese of Münster, as well as Canons Regular and Doctors of Divinity.
There is something positive to be said for the symmetry of the thing, certainly, but one cannot help but wonder how exactly you can know if you have it on the right way round; answers on a gift-aid envelope to DB Towers, please.
