Product description
Unique sculptural design object in the form of an avant-garde hat, crafted from a striking combination of recycled rubber, metal rivets, and colorful decorative textile.
The wide, pleated brim consists of individual black rubber strips, carefully joined with small metal fasteners. The top has a characteristic braided structure that emphasizes the artisanal design.
A wide ocher-yellow textile band with richly detailed floral motifs in petit-point style forms a striking contrast with the industrial black rubber. The decorative bow enhances the sculptural character.
Design & Background
The design combines traditional textile decoration with experimental material use and aligns with the world of avant-garde fashion, sustainable design, and wearable art.
The construction is reminiscent of an experimental design or art project where reuse and design are central.
The original designer and exact production period are not known.
