Thank you for posting here. As I mentioned I am not sure of the time period. I am not familiar with Women's styles. Is there a paper label behind the grosgrain band? You will find information on S. J. Fraenkel Wien, Ebreichsdorfer Filzhutfabrik on my website...- mayserwegener

Looking for info on Fraenkel in Austria.
I am not sure of the time period. I am not familiar with Women's styles. Is there a paper label behind the grosgrain band? You will find information on S. J.

David, Thank you! I am not sure if it was ever worn and it must have been very well protected. I can't remember if there was a back story.- mayserwegener

Mark, Thank you! Mayser was especially good at that ribbon / bow treatment. This hat also has very precise binding work with 3 rows of circular stitching which are hard to see in the photos. Here is a close up photo from 2021.- mayserwegener
