Description
This authentic cowboy collection features a Stetson “Star West” 3X beaver felt hat in a silver-belly hue, complete with its original red satin lining and branded leather sweatband. The hat is accompanied by a rugged assortment of trail gear, including a hand-braided leather bullwhip, a coiled lariat, and two vintage leather holsters—one showcasing detailed floral tooling. Highlighting the leather goods is a mid-century fringed bag featuring decorative stamping and a heavy carry strap. The hat shows visible sweat staining and crown distortion; the leather items exhibit a heavy, honest patina with surface cracking and wear consistent with age and use. Hat: H 5″, W 13″, D 15″. Whip: L 70″. Bag: H 18″, W 12″. Please see photos.
