17th century hat
Hi guys,
I am a decent leather worker and I wanted to make a new leather cavallier hat for myself.
The leather I own is too thin to really stand up, so I have to make some research on the shape of the brim.
Last time I made a round brim, which fell on the shoulder.
This time I'll make it slightly smaller, but, researching for more info I really couldn't find if, back then, the brims were perfectly rounded or slightly oval.
Modern producers vary their shape, so I really don't know what to do.
Is there an antique that survived up to nowadays? Are there any infos about it?
Thanks a lot.
