The slightly pointed crown of this face-framing late 1940s black straw hat is trimmed with a black velvet ribbon-wrapped spray of black feathers. A matching velvet ribbon with a bow in back encircles the top half of the crown. Below the ribbon trim, the hat’s crown has been blocked into a rounded curve in front, while the back section is designed to hug the back of the head when worn, as shown. The hat is in very good condition, the only issue to note some minor flattening of the feathers trim from its long storage. This perky late 1940s ladies’ hat will be a fun addition to your vintage millinery wardrobe!
