VINTAGE 60s Therese Ahrens Ecuador Straw Sun Hat Gold Coin Statement

Absolutely stunning, rare 1960s statement sun hat by luxury milliner Therese Ahrens New York. Sourced from a single owner (my mother’s personal collection), this exquisite piece was meticulously handcrafted in Ecuador from a beautifully soft, delicate fine straw (feels like a premium raffia). It features a vibrant coral/orange grosgrain ribbon band and is adorned along the brim with 24 dangling, lightweight pressed metal gold coins featuring elegant profile heads. A true collector's piece that turns heads, yet packs easily—making it a gorgeous, travel-friendly addition to your resort wear wardrobe. Measurements (Approximate): Inner Circumference: 21" Brim Width: 3" Crown Height: 3.75" Condition: Very good vintage condition with no tears. Please note that the fine straw is inherently delicate. One photo highlights a fragile area on the straw (could easily be reinforced with a small piece of tape on the underside if desired). There is also one tiny, faint spot on the ribbon that could likely be spot-cleaned, though the ribbon is securely attached to the hat. This rare piece has been measured with care and will be packaged and shipped with the utmost care to preserve its shape!
