This lovely woven pork pie straw hat adorned with a twisted velvet ribbon is by Hattie Carnegie. Pork pie hats made a real resurgence in the very early 50s with Dior featuring them in his collections. Measures 9.25 across including the brim that measures 2" in the front gradually narrowing to 1" in the back. The interior measurement is 6.75". This is a very shallow hat with a crown that is 2" high on the outside but only 1.5" deep on the inside. The weaving is marvelous, very delicate and precise and quite beautiful in it's own quiet way. The color is a natural tan straw color and the velvet ribbon matches it almost exactly. The difference in the textures of the materials bring interest to this hat while maintaining it's neutral palette.This piece is in very good condition, no breaks or damage to the straw, there are 2 small spots on the bottom of the rim that look like they would sponge off. There are two labels hand stitched to the inside reading Henry Harris Cincinnati and Hattie Carnegie.
