Welcome to Lao Hats!
Hand-crafted, limited edition artworks... historically inspired, yet timeless…
 |
Lao Hats are handcrafted by American-born artist Heather Daveno, from mostly reclaimed textiles and found objects. Lao, the Chinese word for "old", is a play on words and a reference to these original art pieces as a reclaimed handcraft. Visit the Lao Hats Store to order a custom made creation, or click on "Off the Hat Rack" to see what's currently in stock. |

Community is important to artists, so you will find a page of links directing you to some of Heather's favorites. Heather's Library contains articles she has written on mostly medieval studies as well as links to other historical resource sites. You will also find links to other Environmental, Humanitarian and Living History organizations. |
