It's part of the description of a straw hat. I think 'collier' must be the chin strap, but I've never seen it used that way before. Has anyone else? And I'm not sure about 'bois cousu' either. Surely it can't be wood of any kind!!

wooden beaded hatband
I think it must be this - quite often found on cowboy-style hats but also on straw hats

a wooden necklace sewn onto the hat
I think it is not a chin strap, but it's an ornamental piece sewn onto the hat.
