Gray Felt Bonnet

This bonnet is built on an actual antique gray felt base.  Around the face are multiple layers of trim beginning with a blue braid under the front edge.  A blue twist adorns the edge of the front.

Layers of white and blue lace frame and draw immediate attention to the face. Blue scalloped trim anchors the lace to the hat and continues across the bottom back.

Both sides sport bold silk sunflowers highlighted with tiny white silk flowers.

White ostrich feathers adorn the right side of the hat.  Wide blue grosgrain ribbon anchors this unique bonnet to the head.

Blue appliqués adorn the top of the bonnet.  Original to this antique hat are the gray felt wing like layers located on the sides.
