[csbrewt]

I recently bought this adorable round straw hat at a flea market, it doesnt have a label but does have a ribbon band on the inside. I was curious what time perod it is from, please help.

Hi,

It is a cute summer hat. Without a label, a hat like yours is difficult to date accurately. It could date from anywhere from the 1970s to fairly recent. I am fairly sure is not older than 1970s. It appears to be an inexpensive Asian straw with a glued on ribbon and turkey and fowl feathers.

That is cute! And I'm thinking 70s, maybe into the early 80s. I used to wear a lot of hats in the 70s, and my mom wore a lot in the 80s and 90s, and this looks, as Barbara says, no earlier than 70s, but I don't think later than 80s.

I really know nothing about straw hats with out a label Im lost, would you say it is rare?

Barbara would know better than I, but no, I don't think it's rare. I remember seeing these sorts of styles in many department stores back then.

One last question what style would you say this is?

Hi,

Yes, sorry to agree but it is not rare at all. I wish I could tell you different, but it is a fairly low end hat, mass produced of an inexpensive straw with inexpensive trimmings. Probably imported from China, Phillipines, etc. But it is rather cute.
