AFW - Antique France Worldwide
Description
The men's hat shown in the photo is a vintage wide-brimmed model, made of woven straw. Its crown has a classic and slightly high shape, typical of retro summer hats. The whole features a regular weave on the crown and a tighter weave pattern on the brim, offering a beautiful duality of textures and a neat finish, qualities appreciated in traditional hat-making.
A decorative ribbon encircles the base of the crown. It features a graphic pattern in dark and light tones, which elegantly contrasts with the natural shade of the straw. No logo or inscription is visible on the ribbon, but its style evokes men's accessories from past decades, reinforcing the hat's vintage look.
The main color is natural beige, typical of straw material, with slightly darker shades on the crown due to the weaving method. The ensemble gives an impression of authenticity and freshness, ideal for the summer season or a casual retro outfit.
The hat is presented on an antique wooden desk, in a library setting, which highlights its timeless character and decorative potential. No defects, wear, or alterations are visible on the exposed surface. The brim is well-formed, without any apparent creases or deformities. The straw appears intact and not frayed.
