I had been wanting a western style Dualist for while and asked Art if he could use a 1930's Panama that I owned for the crown. This idea didn't work out, so Art used one of his handmade Milan's as the crown for the hat

Here is the finished result.

Dark Moss felt for the brim, black ribbon and Art's bleached Milan straw for the crown.

I love it and appreciate all your skill and hard work that went into this Art.

I wore my powder blue Art Fawcett VS today of the first time. I've had it for just over a week and it's been killing me waiting. I've never had a hat fit so well. I do wish there was some identifier on the hat to give the felt type. (Joey, Century, or Legacy) It's amazing how a hat can affect the way you feel! People always ask - How are you? With this hat on my head the answer was "GREAT".

Bill, this is a fine piece. I really love the ribbon treatment, I think it will go in my "want this" file.
