Artesano Mandarin Panama Straw Boater Hat

Sun-ready and effortlessly chic. The Artesano Mandarin is a classic Panama-style boater hat handcrafted in Ecuador from 100% toquilla straw — the same UNESCO-recognized palm fibre behind the world-famous Panama hat. Finished with an organic cotton and wild rubber chin strap, a hand-carved tagua bead cord adjuster, and a size-adjustable inner band, the Mandarin is as functional as it is beautiful. In Lime, it brings a vibrant, sun-drenched energy that makes every warm-weather look feel alive.

About Artesano & Toquilla Straw

Artesano is an Ecuadorian brand dedicated to preserving the country’s extraordinary weaving heritage. Toquilla straw weaving — inscribed on UNESCO’s Intangible Cultural Heritage list — is one of Ecuador’s most celebrated artisan traditions. Each hat is made entirely by hand, and natural variations in color and texture are part of the beauty and authenticity of every piece.

Styling Notes

Lime is a bold, joyful color that pairs beautifully with white, cream, navy, and warm neutrals — wear with a white linen dress and sandals for a classic resort look, or with a striped co-ord for a playful nautical ensemble. The chin strap keeps the hat secure on boat days, beach outings, and breezy outdoor occasions, while the classic boater silhouette makes it equally at home at a garden wedding or a summer festival. A statement hat that does the work for you.

Care & Reshaping

• Wearing: Use the brim when putting on or removing the hat — avoid crushing the crown
• Cleaning: Remove stains with a damp cloth and mild soap, dabbing gently. Follow with a clean damp cloth and air dry
• Reshaping: If the straw has distorted from humidity, lay a damp cloth over the affected area and pass a warm iron over it to reshape. This method also works to adjust the brim direction (up or down)
• Storing: Store in a cool, dry place on a shelf away from direct sunlight. Avoid contact with water, excess moisture, and heat — straw may become brittle and crack. Do not leave in a hot car
