Description

The wearing of hats by Master Masons during the Works dates back to the 18th century, when they were combined with the wearing of swords. The wearing of these two distinguishing marks of nobility partly explains the enthusiasm of the bourgeoisie to be accepted as Masons at the time. The type of hat was not described in the old rituals, as it was a common headgear in secular life. Only certain High Degrees prescribed specific ritual headgear. Today, some Rites recommend a particular ritual headgear. French Rite Lodges often use a black Fedora-style hat.

We present an example genuine hat of the prestigious Italian brand Borsalino from fedora shape in rabbit-hair felt, handmade in Italy by the brand. This Borsalino hat is named after Marengo, which is first and foremost an Italian town, but is also known in France as the site of Napoleon Bonaparte's victory at the Battle of Marengo.

The Borsalino brand is the reference in hats for connoisseurs as well as for those looking for a high-quality headgear.

The quality of Borsalino's hair felt is unrivalled. The hair felt cones are manufactured at the factory in Italy right up to the finishing touches.

How to reshape your felt hat? 

Water vapour restores the original appearance of the felt, softening it temporarily. You can then simply reshape it by hand.

How does it work in practice? 

1) Boil hot water in a kettle or saucepan to create steam.

2) Place the edge of your headgear over the steam, avoiding direct contact with the water.

3) Patiently shape the brim of your hat with your fingers.

4) To reshape the crown, smooth by placing your hand inside the hat.
