Description: Very sweet antique 1920s women's cloche/hat made of brown velvet and brown grosgrain ribbon made by Mabley and Carew of Cincinnati. The size is marked at 22 1/2 and would fit a smaller sized head. The condition is good for its age, however there is a wire which has come free from the inside of the hat (used to hold its shape). Here is a little information about its origin: Mabley & Carew was a Cincinnati, Ohio department store founded in 1877 by Joseph T. Carew and C.R. Mabley. Carew became the sole owner after Mabley’s death. They established a store in Baltimore in 1884. The business grew from a small storefront into one of the premier department stores of the Midwest. The Mabley & Carew building was replaced by the Art Deco style Carew Tower in 1930, long a landmark of Cincinnati. Mabley & Carew were at that location from 1930 – 1961, then moved across 5th St. The 5th St building was demolished in 1970. They carried fine clothing. See photos for details and measurements.
