A Vintage late 1950's dressy or formal ladies cocktail hat, designed as a blooming rose with its leaves.
Made by Mr. John Jr.

Designed as a flower--a sort of surrealist, conceptual artistic design.  

Stunning crimson red velvet standing rose, off-center, with the blooming petals spreading out all around the hat. There are wisps of matching veiling covering the petals, but the veiling is brittle and can be easily removed, or keep the good parts and remove the rest.

The petals and leaves are hand-sewn to the black hat base. See photos.

There are 3 wired red velvet leaves on the crown of the hat.

The entire edge is wired all around, so It can be shaped to fit. 
7" long, front to back.

Kept in a smoke-free, pet-free location.
