Folk Hats

$21.95

“There’s an old saying about this quintessential
icon of the American West: ‘It’s the last thing you take off and first thing that’s noticed.’

“Done in celadon green, this elegant pillbox employs a subtle geometry in the diamond motif and the zigzag of the twisted stitches.”




Raffia Pillbox


 

“Yoruba headwear, which can extend one or two feet above the head, often features sculptural human
or animal figures.”
