Second homburg or diplomatique made in France arrived in the past days.
Quite rare to find a Gelot, even less so of this color. Dark gray with blue highlights.
The shape is the classic one of the "normal shaped" homburgs. Size 58 centimeters or 7 1/4 in the US.
The curled brims are 5 centimeters long, the ribbon, the same color as the felt, is 4 centimeters high and the crown, completely open is 13 centimeters.
The inside reminds me that the hat is almost a hundred years old and is perfect, a little less so on the outside where there are small imperfections that can easily be resolved.
The question is which hat manufacturer made this Gelot?
No information at inside the sweatban and the mystery continues....
