This hat was given to me by a cousin to sell. It belonged to her mother in the 50s. The top is black velvet and layered gauze(??) Not sure what it’s called. The entire hat is about 11” across. The small head portion inside is 6” from point to point and 7” from front to back. The gauze is (probably moth eaten) in a few places but not very noticeable. This would be a really cool dress up or costume hat.
