I can't say for certain, but it looks like Tony's ribbon work to me - and the seller was from Washington.

I love the diamond and cross crease on this lid. Just beautiful. I also love the fact that the back of the diamond (on the top of the crease) isn't a sharp point, but is flattened out a bit. Very, very cool.

Cheers,
JtL

This Borso arrived at my house today. When I opened the box I didn't really know if I was going to find a brown Borso or a gray Borso. Well, I didn't find either. Instead I found a Borso with a well lived in look, but still a nice piece of felt with a pristine looking sweat and liner. It's going to Optimo for a clean and block, of course, but the color was a big surprise.....it's GREEN!

I haven't touched the hat except to unpack it, pull the center dent out to a diamond and take a few pics.

Whoa. Had the seller posted that hat accurately the end price may have been quite a bit higher! (See the sage-green hat auction posted by GClark.) Great bit of luck there, Bob. Congratulations! :eusa_clap :eusa_clap

Thanks, TY, Lefty, Garrett and MS. I've been wanting a green lid for a long time, then I bought the green Stetson for Mrs. BobC from you, Garrett, and I was green with envy. It fits her great, by the way, and it's beautiful. I've been pinching myself since I opened the box this afternoon to be sure I'm not dreaming. I never gave a thought to the Borso being green.

Jonbuilder, that skypark is a beauty.
