This high quality JOAL DE LUXE of New York  blue velvet 1940's women's hat is available for sale.

This hat is in excellent condition and is ready to wear.

It was originally designed with two long feathers, a popular style of the 40's.  I have left the fragile remnant of the feather to show where they belong but the feathers will need replacing.

These caps are so distinctive to the era!  Women with pixie cuts sporting elfin caps with feathers-

The hats became smaller and smaller until they disappeared altogether.  Bring back the hat!
