ARTISAN CHALAN HAT panama hat Woven with a mesh nettingThis is a classic South American horserider hat traditionally woven by female artisans in Peru. The toquilla palm tree frond is picked, sun dried and then stripped into micro fine strands that are hand woven together to create a tightly woven hood. The hat is then fixed with a natural tree sap. This is an entirely plant based product, no synthetic products or chemicals are used. The crown of this hat has a traditional Chalan or horserider teardrop
