Description

Beautifully hand decorated 1960s era vintage hat, in genuine silk and delicate metallic Zardozi embroidery. Ivory silk satin with pattern embroidered in silver & gold, accented by red and pearl white glass beads. Hat is lined to add structure and stability to keep shape. Sits tall on head, you might want to use a hat pin or hair pins to secure to hair. Fits best on a larger sized head, on a size 23 or smaller hat size it might fit lower than intended but on an updo can be pinned to stay in place & tall. Pillbox or box style, works well with late 1950s through 1960s looks. Tag reads "An Original by Dayne". Great vintage condition, some extremely faint discoloration to ivory silk in a few spots that is virtually undetectable. A few pulled / popped metallic threads throughout.
