Brand Introduction
Helen Kaminski was established in 1983 by founder Helen Mari Kaminski, who began handcrafting Raphia hats to protect her children's skin from the harsh Australian sun. Soon after, her unique designs gained attention from small boutiques and became well known. Helen Kaminski is a brand rooted in the beauty of nature, craftsmanship, and special style and values.
Product Description
This is a bucket hat model HAT51546 NUCR in a stylish brown color. Made from natural Raphia, which is derived from palm leaves, the hat features 100% Raphia as the outer material, while the inner band consists of 70% nylon, 29% elastic, and 3% cotton trim. This product offers UPF 50+ sun protection.
Usage Instructions
Spot clean the inner padding using lukewarm water and a neutral detergent. Note that Raphia material cannot be washed. If stained, gently wipe the affected area with a slightly damp cloth or wet wipe, avoiding any detergents as they may cause staining or discoloration. Keep the hat in a cool place away from direct sunlight. When storing, do not keep the hat rolled up for long periods to prevent damage; instead, store it flat in an open position.
Precautions
Since Helen Kaminski products are 100% handmade, Raphia's thickness, shape, and color may vary. The natural fiber is sensitive to temperature and humidity, and minor cracking is not considered a defect. There might also be color variations due to natural plant dyeing, and fading over time is normal; such phenomena are not defects.
Please be aware that the tag stitching method may vary based on customer feedback regarding discomfort. The internal headband may be randomly shipped in one of two types based on the production season, so please take note of this when purchasing.
To request a return or exchange, please note that it is mandatory to provide a video of the unpacking of the package.
