    Description

    These 2 wonderful old straw hats were purchased by a couple when they visited Venice Italy in the 1950's. They wore these on a gondola ride. The hats are in excellent vintage condition, with silk ribbons, the words VENEZIA on the ribbon at the crown, and the ribbons also have picture silhouettes of a gondola. One hat has a blue silk ribbon, with blue piping border all the way around the brim, the other has red, but no piping. The ribbons are just slightly frayed on the ends, but look clean and bright. The red hat has a label inside that says MODA ELEGANZA and 56. The blue hat does not have a label. Both have remnants of an elastic chin strap that is gone. The hats fit my large ladie's size head tightly, probably more of a Med. women's or small men's size. They measure:
    13 1/2" front to back
    12 1/2" side to side
    The crown rises about 3 1/2"
    the "hole" for your head measures 7" from front to back and 6 1/2" side to side.
    Great conversation pieces, wall hangings or of course to wear, both clean hats are sold together, with no reserve, and a low BIN - thanks!
