Sentimental Akubra Hat

BRONZED AKUBRA HAT.

The trademark name ‘Akubra’, which is an Aboriginal word for head covering has become an Australian Icon. The shape is identical with the landscape of outback Australia, with a sharply rising and falling, rough, or jagged surface

I believe they made over 20 different styles of hats for the new Film “Australia”

Our customer was not part of that Film. He traveled across Australia for many years taking accurate measurements of land areas in order to determine boundaries, elevations, and dimensions. The Akubra has protected millions of Australians against harsh conditions like sun, wind and rain.
The hat was on his head 6-7 days per week and became his best friend (beside his wife that traveled with him) On his retirement the wife sent the sentimental worn out hat to be Bronzed.
The Bronzed hat is now a showcase with many stories to be told.

At Chrometech we not only Chrome on plastic and fiberglass but any material can be electroplated.

Why not Bronze your sentimental items?

Famous science fiction film

Famous science fiction film.

In the film Keanu Reeves was starring as Neo.
“Neo was a young software engineer and part-time hacker who was singled out by some mysterious figures who wantrf to introduce him into the secret of 'the matrix'. The cops also seemed to be after him, and he took a chance on discovering what he always suspected: that the world was not quite what it seemed to be and that a sinister conspiracy is at work.”
You might remember a bar scene where Cypher said (about his drink): "It's good for two things, degreasing engines and killing brain cells."
The selectively chromed glasses they used for the drinks were Chrome-plated by the Bronzing Studio- Chrometech in Castle Hill.
