Pic of Winchester felt and Fepsa felt

I am still curious because the only Fur Felt producer I know of in the Czech Republic is Tonak. Maybe it's a Felt supplier? I will check with Bahner Maschinenhandels.

Yes, the instructor was being coy about the source...was adamant it was Czech rabbit but NOT Tonak. I didn't press her as the felt would not work for a fedora. It made a decent fashion cloche for my wife but not sure how long it will stand up.

Was it Fur Felt? Thanks!

Yes, she was adamant that it was rabbit felt. The class was advertised as providing a fur felt capeline with which to work. It is fur just not great quality. It paled in comparison to my Tonak antelope finish.

Moonshine Fepsa against Winchester. It is pre ponced, but I can tell you it’s a superb hand and feel. Quite incredible really.
