Description from the seller

A remarkable antique kolbak, produced around 1900 for theatre use.

The hat has a tall cylindrical shape with a black curled upper edge, a red felt body, and a distinctive red fabric “val” on the side. Finished at the bottom with a beige band. The interior features the original fabric lining with a drawstring construction.

Inspired by Hungarian / hussar uniforms, but produced as a stage or operetta costume. An authentic theatre piece from around 1900.
