This collection of eight early 20th-century wooden millinery hat blocks includes a variety of crown blocks and finishing forms used in the making and shaping of hats. Their sculptural forms, rich wood tones, and beautifully worn surfaces create an artful display that celebrates shape, texture, and craftsmanship. Whether grouped together or arranged throughout a space, they bring warmth and architectural presence to shelves, tables, and display cabinets.
CONDITION
In good condition with wear consistent with age and use. Surface wear, tool marks, age-related darkening, scattered nicks, and original workshop stamps are present throughout the collection.
