Emmy Noether was a groundbreaking mathmatician whose theorem explained that the deepest laws of physics are governed by symmetry.  Her work reshaped modern mathematics and helped scientists understand how the universe holds together.  This gossamer’s lattice of beads and quiet geometry echoes the patterns she loved to uncover.  If Emmy was alive right now, she would reach for this cozy gossamer as she left her long day at the lab, disappearing into the night with a mind full of patterns.

One of a kind, Quietly powerful.  For women who know that elegance often begins with a pattern no one else can see.

Description

The Gossamer hat is a Trish Raine-developed hat, handmade by fusing merino wool and chiffon silk in a process of wet felting (nuno felting).  This hat has silk on the outside of the hat, and is lined with a different silk.  A thin layer of merino wool is felted between the two layers of silk essentially “gluing” them together.  This means that it will be comfortable on your head, soft on your hair and will breathe, allowing air to flow right through.

This gossamer hat is a VERY thin felt and as such does not have much structure to it, so will easily fold up in a purse.  Each fold  is hand-sewn into place to keep the shape of the hat. This hat is wonderful for fall or spring, or if you have cooler summer nights. It is good in the winter, but not warm enough for very cold temperatures (but fits fabulously under a hood)! Perfect to be worn inside, and with silk as a liner it is gentle on one’s scalp if experiencing hair loss.

This hat fits a smaller sized head 21.75-22.5″.  If you have questions about fit, please let me know.

 

Elegant, intelligent and built on beautiful symmetry.
