Obi-Wan Kenobi's (Ewan McGregor) Framed Padawan Braid

Our expert's notes

Obi-Wan Kenobi's (Ewan McGregor) framed Padawan braid from George Lucas' Star Wars: The Phantom Menace. Keeping with the Jedi tradition, Kenobi wore a braid in his hair while serving as an apprentice knight under the tutelage of Qui-Gon Jinn (Liam Neeson). According to Claudia Gray's Master & Apprentice, Kenobi habitually tugged at his braid while training.
Padawan braids wrapped with multicolor bands or strung with beads symbolized rank among the Jedi across the franchise. The concealment or removal of the sacred adornments became tragic symbols of the Galactic Empire's tyranny after Sheev Palpatine (Ian McDiarmid) initiated Order 66 in Revenge of the Sith.
This braid features synthetic brown hair tied with two bands of red thread and one band of gold-color thread. It comes mounted behind glass inside a custom framed display alongside a color-printed still of Obi-Wan in his Jedi robe. The braid shows evidence of wear consistent with on-set use, handling, and age, including minor fraying. Dimensions: (framed) 22" x 13.25" x 1.25" (55 cm x 33.75 cm x 3.25 cm)
