Bonnet
Not on view
High-style verticality and luxurious material are blended with witty detailing in this fetching winter bonnet. The whimsical mink head ornament with upright tails evokes the playful and impish charm of the mischievous animal. Family history records that this hat was worn by the wife of Joseph Wechsler, a partner of the firm Wechsler and Abraham, predecessor to the great Brooklyn retailer Abraham & Straus.
