MEREDITH – Saucer Fascinator Hat Block

120.00

This is a circular saucer fascinator or percher hat block that comes with a dome shaped presser. The presser is placed over the top of the hat block to form the ‘bump’. Place a weight on the top, this way it will be easier to pin the sinamay round the rest of the block. Once the fascinator has dried, use your imagination to cut the desired shape. Usually milliners prefer an asymmetrical outline where one side of the fascinator is higher than the other. See the last picture of a sample saucer fascinator that was made using this hat block.

This set of hat blocks will be MADE TO ORDER. Pleas allow 1-2 weeks to create this set.

Please read more detailed item description below.

Description

Saucer fascinators or perchers hats have become very popular recently. These large, beautiful fascinators are usually worn on one side of the head. These fascinators have a dome shaped ‘bump’ in the middle that fits nicely against the head. These fascinators are usually mounted on a headband, smaller pieces like this one can also be worn with a plastic hair comb.

This is a circular saucer fascinator hat block that comes with a dome shaped presser. The presser is placed over the top of the hat block to form the ‘bump’. Place a weight on the top, this way it will be easier to pin the sinamay round the rest of the block. Once the fascinator has dried, use your imagination to cut the desired shape. Usually milliners prefer an asymmetrical outline where one side of the fascinator is higher than the other. See the last picture of a sample saucer fascinator that was made using this hat block.

The presser is a multi-functional hat block on its own. Use it to create sinamay, felt, straw or buckram bases for your headpieces. As the dome matches the shape of the head, you can use it to make different freeform headpieces.

The base of the saucer hat block measures 24cm ( 9.5″) in diameter and stands 6.5cm (2.5″) tall. The depression in the top of the block measures 14cm ( 5.5″ ) in diameter and is around 4cm (1.6″) deep. The presser measures about 15cm ( 5.9″) in diameter and is about 6,5cm ( 2.6″) high. The presser block has a 2,4 cm (1″) hole bored in it for mounting on a work stand; it will fit on most hat block stands. The blocks have a lacquer finish to protect the wood.

This set of hat blocks is made from lime. This is a tree widely spread in Northern Europe. This is a soft material and easy to pin.

NOTE: This item will be MADE TO ORDER. Please allow 3 weeks to make this set of hat blocks. If you need a rush order please contact me before making the purchase.
