Optimo Hatworks is located in the mountains of southeastern Arizona, in the historic mining town of Old Bisbee. Located in the heart of the historic district, Optimo Hatworks interior décor is in the Victorian style reminiscent of the 1880’s. All the tools and equipment are originals from that period in American History. All the styles are done by hand in the old world fashion. We have original designs both in contemporary and period fashions. Along with Cleaning and reblocking we also are conservators in restoring important antique hats. We have been featured in national and international fashion and travel publications as well as radio, television and newspaper articles too numerous to mention. The Hatworks is museum-like in its layout so the public can view hat making in the old world style. We are an atelier (salon studio) that is open for educational tours for school groups, friends of the library, etc. We have become a destination business for the state of Arizona. Our hats are fine hand-woven straws from Ecuador, custom hand-formed and finished by Optimo. We also have custom-blended beaver, cashmere, hare and rabbit felt hats. Renovating and hand finishing of straw and fur-felt hats is also on the menu. |
