Vintage Equestrian Top Hat Sz 7 1/4

[Purplesage]

Equestrian fur felt Top Hat. The hat is in nice shape with the only issue being some stains and soiling on the liner. The leather sweatband is soft and pliable. I've been told that this is a woman's equestrian Top Hat because the bow is on the right side of the hat. A man could wear that hat as well since the bow is barely visible behind the curled brim. I don't recognize the logo on the crown tip and there are no markings on the hat which identify the maker so it could be American made or European made. The brim is 1 1/8" in front and and 6/8" on the side since the brim curls sharply upward on the sides. The crown is 4" tall with a 1" grosgrain ribbon. The size 7 1/4 is written on the back of side of the sweatband.
