@Frunobulax "made" me buy this. It came yesterday.
He and I both thought it was a homburg from the pics on the eBay. It ain't.

Royal Vita-Felt.

Good to see you, Mr Barnes. Hope you are well. That's a most unusual and beautiful hat. Damn Fruno!

Thanks Greg. Better to be seen than viewed.

I'm doing alright. Hope that you are, too.

I needed a change so I reverted the brim shape of my Falcon Park black cherry lords hat to the way Parker originally made it for me.
Enjoy your day!

Earlier this morning, for reference:

The temperature dropped ten degrees in a day

So I can wear without problems the French felts arrived two days ago

Flechet without lining that had to be sold in West Berlin, but never reach the destination

Heather felt is soft and very malleable, it is deep grey with some pale grey and blue

As most of the France production of the last fifty years the ribbon is a little bit fancy, but interesting

Have a nice day and thanks for likes and appreciation

That Flechet looks fantastic , Daniele!
Also, ten degrees change in an hour is normal around here!

Yesterday was a hat so big that was hard to get in frame.

Today was another hat some people want to destroy.

And later I stole Boss Hogg hat.

They’re all great, João! Love the rolled brim on the first one.

Took a chance on this on eBay and got lucky. Really sweet felt with one of the smoothest finishes I’ve laid hands on.
Apparently he was a custom hatter in the late 90a early 2000s. There are a couple of short threads on FL

The head shots are close to actual color

It has that glow about it— very nice!

Sweet. I love the cat’s reaction to the brim width!

Wearing a gift from a fellow Lounger who wishes to remain anonymous. My thanks to him for the hat. This is a Culo Brutto Borsalino in black. It's my next project and is already on the block. The felt is real nice and the detailing is second to none. I'll be reusing the original ribbon work and brim binding. There's plenty of hat here to work with and it should make a very nice conversion. I'll be squaring up the crown from its previous very tapered form. It has plenty of open crown height, (somewhere between 5 3/4 and 6 inches tall), and a 3 inches wide brim. I'm not a black hat fan but I may make an exception with this one when I'm finished. I'll have more in the Conversion Corral when it's completed...

Darn that Jim! Looks very nice Matt, good to see you. Kitty doesn't look that thrilled though.

That's gonna look good, I think.

Thanks Jeff, it's a Pendleton. Sweet Black Cherry hat you got there.

That's my hope, but I think it's going to make a fine looking conversion.
