This bright yellow fur felt hat is part of Valeria Fazekas' hand-blocked hat series. This elegant hat, perfect for everyday use, can be shaped by the user into three district forms: a restrained form reminiscent of a beret; a form evocative of a visor hat, or worn tightly over one’s head.

This bright red fur felt hat is part of Valeria Fazekas’ hand-blocked collection. The hat was created as an evolution of Valeria’s smaller ‘New York' hat with cubic and fractured outlines. For the ‘Manhattan’ hat, these features have been enlarged and evoke the tall standing forms of buildings.

Delhi, a black fur felt hat, is part of Valeria Fazekas’ hand-blocked collection. Inspiration for the design came from the technical challenge and the playfulness of rotating two separate forms. Using a particular form, she pushes the limits of hand-blocked hats with skill and experience.

This hat was created within the framework of Valéria Fazekas' solo exhibition “In Circulation”, developed for and presented at the Contemporary Design Collection of the Museum of Applied Arts, Budapest. Valeria drew her inspiration for the piece from an ornamental vase produced by Zsolnay Factory (Pécs, Hungary), itself based on an archaic type of vase.

Hekla is a static and asymmetric hand-blocked hat. The name of the bright red fur felt hat refers to the Icelandic volcano Hekla. Fazekas carefully balances the size and placement of the spheres to create a playful and seemingly random look. While making it, she examined the issues of seriality, repetition and symmetry/asymmetry.
