Ready To Trim Plain Vintage Ecuador Panama Straw Capeline Hat Body - 11.5"
Oh boy! True Ecuador Panama straw capelines are a thing of beauty. Often used in high-end millinery, these capelines made from toquilla straw are known for their breathability and ability to bounce back into shape. It often took days for a skilled weaver to complete even just one capeline. They really are special.
We obtained a few of these beauties from a long-time hat manufacturer in England. These examples date to the 1980s-90's and we are so happy to share them with you!
This plain weave capeline has been fitted with an elasticated inner head ribbon so is all ready to trim!
Capeline measures:
Flat measurement from crown tip to brim: 11.5 inches
Brim width from side crown to brim edge: 10cm
