This is a vintage 50s era bucket hat made by Hattie Carnegie . This is a wonderful example of Hattie Carnegie design - very structured and well constructed. The hat is made of a printed wool jersey that is concentrically stitched overall. The print is of fall foliage in tones of charcoal grey and ochre brown against an off-white background. There is a matching wide band around the base of the crown that crosses at the back and the brim of the hat is turned down. The interior of the hat is lined in a white voile fabric.
