Top hat

A top hat made of black felt, which is a velvet-like fabric with long silk nap. It was manufactured in the 1880s. The hat is trimmed with black grosgrain ribbon and a small rectangular buckle. Inside, it is lined with purple paper and has the maker’s stamp “A. Bergman, Malmö” in gold print. It was acquired by the City Museum in 1960 as a gift from the former museum director Stig Roth.
