This neat little hat was made in the 1950's.
Made from lacquered raffia, in rich cream, it is a close fitting piece which has a shallow crown and rounded, down turned brim. Trimmed with a folded band of cream grosgrain, it is finished off perfectly with a large apricot coloured fabric rose in the back.
The perfect finishing touch to your vintage outfit.
