	Sarpech (/, from Persian) also known as an aigrette is a turban ornament that was worn by significant Hindu and Muslim princes. "Sar" means head or front and "pech" means screw. Hence, the word "Sarpech" literally means that which is screwed onto the front (of the turban). It was also worn in Persia where it was known as "jikka" or "jiqa" () which means crest or tuft and in Turkey it was known as "Sorguch" which is considered a corrupt form of the Persian word "sarpush". In India, dominantly two kinds of turban ornaments exist: "Sarpech" and Kalgi (ornament).
