Elegant vintage felt hat by Lou Johnson of Tacoma, crafted in Italy and imported for the U.S. boutique market. This refined piece features a sculpted felt body with a beautifully detailed beaded bow accent, showcasing fine millinery craftsmanship.
The interior retains the original “Genuine Imported Velour” mark and Made in Italy stamp, indicating quality materials and mid-century production. A timeless silhouette that works beautifully for cocktail wear, church, tea parties, or vintage fashion collectors.
A rare and sophisticated accessory from a respected regional milliner — hats of this caliber were often sold through upscale boutiques rather than mass production.
