This neat little pink step topper is decorated with a self pink felt bow and a small rhinestone pin at the back, and with black velvet ribbon around each "step" or layer of the hat. Great for spring, warm yet spring coloured. Unlined with a matching grosgrain ribbon hatband inside, this size 22 hat is in excellent vintage condition inside and out. There was no trace of veiling when I got this hat, but the era and style suggest that there could have been veiling on it. I could restore with silk veiling. What to you think - to veil or not to veil?

Thank you so much Bellin68. I took these pics in the morning because the hat looks like a morning type hat. I'm having fun with the mirror lately too.....
your very welcome antiquarius123 :) i would have a lot of fun with the mirror AND the perfect time of the day during the winter months is the morning:) wow a stunning post and pictures of this stunning hat:)
But do you think it should/would have had a veil? Can't decide whether I should put a lovely fine silk veil on it before it goes to the shop......
i think with out a veil :) it gives it that modern look and the art deco look at the sametime :)
