Among conical hats, the n��f the Vietnamese forms a perfect right circular cone which tapers smoothly from the base to the apex. N��re notable for their romantic and timelessly crafted adornments. Special conical hats in Vietnam contain colorful hand-stitch depictions or words while the Huế varieties are famous for their n��th�iterally: poem conical hats). These contain random poetic verses and H�tự which can be revealed when the hat is directed above one's head in the sunlight. Now, it is becoming a part of national costume of Vietnam. The conical Asian hat, sedge hat, rice hat, paddy hat, bamboo hat, "'Chinese sombrero"' and sometimes known by the term coolie hat, although many people consider this term to be offensive, is a simple style of conical hat originating in East, South Asia and Southeast Asia, particularly China, Cambodia, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Philippines, India, Bangladesh and Vietnam. This style of hat is used primarily as protection from the sun and rain. When made of straw or matting, it can be dipped in water and worn as an impromptu evaporative-cooling device.
