Cappellificio Cervo

[Aureliano]

Couldn't find a thread devoted to this brand of hats, so I'm opening one. Got a Cervo? post it here.
I'll start with mine:
Treviso.

Traveler.

Vent holes aren't original to the hat. I made them.

Great looking Hats Aureliano. The treviso is my favorite. Its really beauty.
The vent holes are a good idea.

There is this older thread. Admittedly, it wasn't created just to post examples, but maybe the threads could be combined?

Very little Cervo there and a lot of vintage vs. modern standards and preferences. I hope this thread stays to show the hats and discuss the brand.

I'll put some up tomorrow when there is light. I thought there was a Cervo Bantam Thread.

Beautiful, Robert. It's my impression that Simeon Zlateff only carried the highest quality hat. I've seen his Borsalinos and now this Cervo, just remarkable!

Bulgarian Bantams

found some old postings:

This was listed a second time after no buyers the first listing. 44 days in transit. Previous one took 18 days by same service. Very light and soft.

Brown Bulgarian Bantam-Cervo

Turns out to be an Ultra-lite with thin edge binding. Felt is very much like a typical Borsalino "Alessandria".

NOS but could use a C & B to cure it of stacked storage-stiffness and smooth it out. 2-1/4"+brim 5-1/2" open crown.

Ale, is this the company that made those nice Worth & Worth fedoras that you have? The styling is very smiler to the hats you posted at the start of this thread.

Yes. My gray Treviso and the charcoal "vented" Traveler are Cervo made for Worth & Worth. The gray one was a NOS I was fortunate to buy, from the 80s and the Traveler wasn't a NOS but one stowaway who Orlando, the owner, found and contacted me. They don't sell Cervos any more, unfortunately

I own a Cervo and love it, although it's quite worn out now and relegated to the closet. I bought it in 2001.

Can you buy Cervos in the U.S.? I tried three years ago to find out, but failed.

Delmonico sells them. I think Worth and Worth hats are made by Cervo.

 

[Aureliano]

I think Worth and Worth hats are made by Cervo.

Not anymore. Guerra 1855 makes them now. They are awesome!

Not anymore. They have another maker, Guerra 1855. Pretty amazing felts, I should add.
