Vintage 100% Wool Basque Beret chocolate brown

This ladies wool beret offers a stylish nod to classic fashion with its rich heritage and versatile appeal. Crafted from high-quality wool, this beret ensures warmth, durability and natural water-resistant properties, making it practical for various weather conditions. Originating in the Basque region of Spain and France, the beret was traditionally worn by shepherds and farmers in the Pyrenees Mountains, and over the years it has become a symbol of French identity, embraced by artists, intellectuals and revolutionaries. Effortlessly transitioning from casual to formal outfits, the wool beret offers multiple styling options, whether worn flat on the head, tilted to one side or pulled back. Its one-size-fits-all design allows for slight adjustments by shaping the wool when damp, ensuring a comfortable fit. Whether embellished with embroidery, pins or brooches, the beret serves as a canvas for personal expression, symbolising nonconformity and artistic freedom, perfect for adding a chic finishing touch to any ensemble.
