According to Kate Smith (sensationalcolor.com) “Gray is the color of intellect and of compromise. It’s a diplomatic color, negotiating all the distance between black and white. We typically consider gray to be conservative, elegant, and cool, though it can be a bit mysterious”.  It is the color which supports and enhances all others, and in the palette of this hat enhances the natural golds, and browns and dusty blues of the silk on merino wool.  Sophisticated and stately with a casual flair, this hat will not only keep you warm during cooler weather, it can be dressed up or down when  paired with a sweater, jacket, or scarf for many an outing.

Description

This hat is handmade felt.  The silk material is fused with raw merino wool in a process of wet felting called nuno felting.  Once the fabric/felt hood is created, it is stiffened and blocked over a vintage wooden block to shape.  The brim is wired, and an elastic inner band is sewn in by hand helping keep the hat on your head.  Finally it is trimmed with a simple yet sophisticated grosgrain head band and bow.

This hat fits a medium-sized head, 21.75-22.75″.  If you have questions about fit, please contact me.

“Gray is great. People think gray is a neutral, but I think it’s such a moody, intense, dramatic and sexy color. It’s very sleek”.  – Bryan Batt, American actor
