Traditionally reserved for funerals, this unusual model in gray takes isolation to an entirely new level. Petite pillbox hat of vertical-pelt gray mink fur with top center tuft; 360-degree gray birdcage veil falls to eyebrows. Lined in charcoal wool flannel with gray grosgrain sweatband; interior combs. material: mink, wool flannel, veiling noteworthy: loosen dirt with baby toothbrush or compressed air repairs: replaced veiling condition: excellent measurements: diameter: 5 ½” crown circumference: 16 ¼” exterior circumference: 21 ½” crown diameter: 6 ½” crown height: 1 ½” veil: 7 ½” from center crown; 2 ½” from bottom hat edge label: no label present size: no size tag present ; comparable to one size fits most due to placement perched on head *please note a portion of all fur sale proceeds is donated to animal charities
