During the Victoriam Bustle Period hats become very popular. These hats known as Flowerpot hats are made of hand stretched felt and are decorated with a range of silk, ribbons and feathers.
The first
is aubergine in colour with grey Papillionacious silk woven ribbons
from a specialist company based in Devon. It is enhanced by grey
silk rosettes and a grey ostrich feather. Further pictures can be
sent to you on request. This one is medium
sized.
The second is in blue handstretched felt with a moire ribbon rose at the front and a strategically placed peacock feather. This one is medium sized.
The third is in yellow handstretched felt with brown velvet lining and wrapped in brown velvet fabric. It is finished off with four pheasant feathers and a chiffon plaid rosette at the front. The brim on this version is slighly asymetrical. This one is sized small.
The fourth is made in straw, to go with your beautiful beach wear. It has red and cream coloured picot ribbons and two ostrich feathers. This hat is medium sized.
The final hat has had slightly different treatment and is a copy of an original, We agree that it is slightly mad but just so wearable. Made in black felt with moire ribbons and a vintage buckle on the front. The brim is trimmed with two sets of ruffles.
If you would this style in a different colour, with alternative decoration or in another size, one can be made to your specific requirements. Use the Contact Us in order to discuss your requirements.
