ABOUT THIS PRODUCT
Meet the Harper, a handwoven wide-brim hat that carries centuries of Javanese craftsmanship in every stripe. Created from traditional Lurik fabric, meaning "stripes" in Javanese, this beautiful piece connects you to generations of artisans from Central Java who still use wooden weaving tools passed down through time.
The dome-shaped design and generous five-inch brim offer graceful sun protection whether you're strolling city streets or relaxing by the shore. Each hat is thoughtfully handwoven from 100% cotton in the rich tradition of Lurik fabric, which continues to hold deep cultural significance in Javanese ceremonies.
This timeless black and off-white striped design brings understated elegance to your slow living wardrobe. The soft, breathable cotton feels gentle against your skin while the classic wide-brim silhouette provides both style and practical protection for long, sunny days.
