This hat is one, of several, I purchased from a lady that bought them a few years ago from an estate sale of a lady that was 98 years old, so don't know its exact age but, could be as early as the 1920's. It's made of many layers of what, look-likes, navy blue mesh ribbon (fairly stiff) accented with a wide ribbon & a bow in a lighter shade of blue. Its in excellent condition with no issues to note and measures 4" high with a circumference of 21". Price is Firm!
