Beautiful color and clean crisp edge Daniele. I like the matching ribbon/felt combination on this one. The bow is nice too.Another grey day in Verona. Misty hills and very low clouds with humidity
Panizza Super NOS from Meran
Made in the historical factory of Ghiffa, where now there is the "Museo del cappello", visited in March with Steve
The felt, with no name color, is fantastic as the matching with the ribbon color
Usually the names of the plants growing on Lake Maggiore were used to determine the name of the color of the felts
Panizza made marvellous hats, no so elegant like Borsalino, not so bold as Barbizio, but very, very fine in a classic Italian tradition
I take off my hat to greet you and thank you for your appreciation
I enjoy seeing this hat on you. It is good that it will be displayed proudly.
That's a beauty Rock.
And the still life shots are really, really cool. Is that amethyst?
Thank you, and yes it is amethyst with a
splashed out copper above.
Thanks Red. I did stay warm.Fuzzy goodness Michael. It goes well with the overall look of keeping warm today. Impressive.
That's a gem Red. The angora is a diamond. Great pickups.Out for a day of errands wearing the recent delivered Borsalino Savoy, color Mogano (Mahogany) circa mid 1950s. The hat was a Borsalino American export that made its way to Marshall Field & Co. Then, somehow, back to Italy and then to Stefan in Volendam, and now back to the USA. This hat is a world traveler! This exchange with Europe will be going to Mike Miller in Eugene Oregon next week. Could not resist the temptation to give it a spin.

Boy oh boy Eric, that color is absolutely beautiful. Nice looking coat too.
Perfect setting & perfect lighting for the Sage color, Eric!

Can't go wrong with the gray/black combo. What a beautiful piece! Just when I think I don't need any more hats, MayserWenger comes along with a Mayser...
J. Hückel ´s Söhne "Loden" NOS from my May 2016 Czech find.
One fine looking hat. It sports a blue shade in the pic 1 and 2.
My kind of hat for sure! I really like that color. The crease is right on too. Nice Ostrichs!

Thanks, 65. Stetson called the color sky gray.
Thanks! The Mayser is probably late 1950s very early 1960s. The ribbon / bow are of the time period.I just love these hats. What a gorgeous piece!
Well today was a banner hat day. Merry Christmas to me. Two boxes, one from the Netherlands and one Ebay. Just a quick look at:
