G. B. Borsalino fu Lazzaro probably sold in France
The lining is gone
therefore, not being there the stamp of the shop on the sweatband, I presume it comes from France because I bought it there
The felt is very soft, almost like velvet and I think there is a modest component of wool
What is very interesting is the shape, with the flat brim raised all over the perimeter and a huge pleated ribbon
For its shape and finish, see the printed logo of the two dogs with the hat in their mouth, it seems to be a product of the 1920s
The paper label is celled and the printed name is Paris, the rest are numbers written in pen or printed. The size seems to be 4 5/2 even if it does not exist in the French size. The internal measurements are 19x15,8 cm. so a 56 cm.
For completeness of information here are the hat measures: the brim measure 6.5 centimeters total and the open crown is 13 cm. the ribbon is 5 cm.
Itarrived with a hat box, poor conditions, made in cardboard and metal
