Tonak "Brillant" "бриллиант", possibly early to mid 1950s. The condition of the light colored Velour is excellent along with the all the components. The Velour felt is very pliable and easily dry creases. The liner is really special along with the Russified Tonak mark. This hat was made for the Russian market. The Sweatband mark "бриллиант" is Russian for "Brillant". I acquired this Velour back in 2022.

It's hard for me to post pics on a daily basis, so I may have to mimic Stefan and post a whole weeks worth at the same time!

Dunn & Co "proudly" made in the UK, that's what the sweatband says, more or less, but I have some doubts about the felt that seems to have been supplied by some European manufacturer

But you never know what happened in the making of hats in ancient times

The hat is very well finished with high quality components and fits like a glove, so it is among those that remain in Verona, despite the very specific desire to lighten my collection

Happy Saturday to all of you and congratulations on your hats that I recovered after two days of absence

Indeed Daniele! Quite dapper today in that Dunn & Co. chocolate velour
