Exquisite workmanship
I love watching him make these felt hats! I also love that he wears a hat while making them. The precision he takes and the perfection in his taste and style is absolutely amazing.
Yeah, good work and craftmanship indeed. SALUTE
Such an amazing talent. I want to get one of your hats just because. I have a Bowler and a Fedora that I wear for extra special events, but I wish these style hats would make a comeback.
Yeah, very nice indeed. SALUTE
Absolutely Amazing Work Hornskov!!!! 🎩🤭😉
I'm sitting here listening to the piece of music wondering when Agent 47 is going to come out and do his thing. ;) LOL!
Stunning , so beautiful ...
Where does one get Hatteras felt
I enjoy your videos very much, and your hats are beautiful. Would you make a video on how to put a long oval into a hat? Thank you.
Mr. Hornskov, I really enjoyed this video. I wanted to know if you stiffened the top hat and if so, what did you use?
This isn't a traditional topper construction. It's the way that a contemporary hatter does it. In the pre-collapsible era, the hats were made of beaver pelt, not felt, formed over a cardboard foundation. I don't know of anyone in the world who is now capable of that technique. I own 4 from the very early part of the 20th century, including one, never worn, that I purchased in its original box with the handwritten receipt and client name and address.
Pre-Collapsible era? You mean before the 1830s, when it was invented by paris hatmaker Gibus? The most images of top hats or castor hats from the 19. century I know shows hats made of felt, mostly beaver felt, or silk and satin for a very formal top hat.
I never heard of pelt and cardboard top hats, would not that made them very delicate to wear, especially in damp weather?
Never heard of a pelt covered
Top hat however, calico top hats were most commonly produced in that era which were buckram frames covered in a material made from silk called hatters plush. It resembles the long hair of the melusine beaver hat bodies used in felt hat making. These are the shiny top hats you see from that era. One reason you don't see modern hatters making these is because the plush material is no longer in production anywhere in the world.
@Threedog92 yes. They are absurdly delicate. The rain must have been hazardous. That's why collapsible came along, the simple fabric hats eith no hard structure. Just hunger struts that.could bend. Collapse to flatten the hat for storage. Think of Shirley McClain doing If M Friends Could See Me Now from Sweet Charity . She pops the hat in and out. Before that toppers were very easily destroyed
Not beaver pelt mostly, that was really only in the 1840’s and before. Top hat historians will back me on this. It was mainly silk plush.
What do they make the model before they discovered beavers I heard rumors that they made top hats out of platypuses
Awesome work. Do you restore or repair old felt hats? I have a 1950’s Borsalino that needs a new ribbon and the grosgrain brim ribbon is falling apart. This hat is somewhat discolored due to age, so it needs a good cleaning. In addition, it has shrunk about 3/8” in circumference so it needs to be stretched and the leather headband needs some repairs.
