A finely stitched felt hat that looks appropriate for any social occasion. The fabric shimmers faintly when examined.

Allows the wearer to cast disguise self on themselves at will, changing appearance and voice. Appears and feels like a perfectly ordinary stylish felt hat.

A polished bronze-capped cap lined with soft leather and set with a single polished crystal above the brow.

Grants the ability to establish telepathic contact with a creature you can see and to sense surface thoughts at short range. The helm looks like a smart, small-brimmed caber.

A narrow circlet of hammered silver. When you tap it a faint hum is heard and a hairline seam along the gem brightens briefly.

Once per day, produces a focused blast of force energy in a straight line (minor damage and a shove). The circlet is a band set with a small carved gem.

A pair of mounted lenses on a soft-leather strap. They look like goggles but are fashioned with ornamental brass filigree.

Provides the ability to see in darkness as if it were dim light out to a moderate distance.

A silk top hat with an impossibly glossy finish. It comes with a perfectly fitted satin liner.

While worn the hat increases the wearer’s showmanship and gives advantage on Performance checks, but imposes disadvantage on Stealth and stealth-related Dexterity checks and causes the wearer to adopt flamboyant gestures at socially inappropriate times.

A neat bowler with a carved wooden bee pinned to the band. The band always smells faintly of honey.

When worn outside in warm weather the hat sporadically attracts an angry cluster of bees that harass the wearer and nearby creatures. Harassment deals minor piercing damage and can distract the wearer (chance to impose disadvantage on next action). The bees are nonlethal but persistent until a remove curse or dispel causes them to stop.

A fedora lined with a strip of midnight-blue silk. When you place it on your head you think you hear the faintest murmur of a voice.

A friendly-sounding whisper follows the wearer, offering advice and commentary. The whisper grants a small insight bonus (+2 to Insight checks) but randomly and briefly distracts the wearer at inopportune moments, potentially imposing a small penalty to initiative or concentration checks when it shrieks suddenly.

A jaunty cap covered in bright polka dots. It is remarkably well made and sits just right on the head.

Once per combat or stressful situation, when the hat is removed or put back on quickly, the wearer is whisked randomly up to 30 feet to an unoccupied space that the hat 'chooses'. The teleport is harmless but may place the wearer in danger or an awkward position. The hat appears harmless and beautifully decorated with polka-dot ribbons.
Miscellaneous1

A velvet circlet worked with tiny runes that hum faintly. Practical scholars prize its balanced, steady weight.

While worn, sets the wearer’s Intelligence to 19 if it is lower. The headband is a snug circlet of embroidered silk.
Miscellaneous4

A stout, round leather box with brass clasps and a padded interior. It smells faintly of cedar and polish.

An extradimensional storage space in the form of a seemingly ordinary leather traveling hatbox. Safe for storing small costumes and headgear.

A practical wool cap, embroidered with the maker's mark and reinforced at the brim. Durable and comfortable for long travel.

A small leather roll with brushes, a bottle of hat polish, spare ribbons, needles, and thread.

A small box of decorative hat pins. Useful for mending a hat’s trim or for a quick distraction when thrown.

Potions2

A clear glass phial sealed with wax. The liquid inside shimmers faintly red.

Heal 6 HP

A heavier phial of deeper red. The stopper is tied with a ribbon depicting a tiny top hat.

Heal 12 HP

Shop Atmosphere

Everything in the shop looks immaculate and tailored. Merrin greets customers by making educated guesses about their travels based solely on their hats. A bell made of polished thimble rings whenever a hat with a curse leaves the counter. Merrin habitually offers a complimentary cup of spiced tea while subtly trying to interest customers in 'just one more charming topper'.
