Hat and Fragrance Textile Gallery

The Hat and Fragrance Textile Gallery is an exhibit space at Shelburne Museum in Shelburne, Vermont which houses quilts, hatboxes, and various other textiles.
The name "Hat and Fragrance" refers both to Electra Havemeyer Webb's collection of hatboxes and to the fragrant, herbal sachets used to preserve textiles. In 1954, Shelburne Museum was the first museum to exhibit quilts as works of art; prior to this exhibition quilts were only shown as accessories in historic houses.
== History ==

Captain Benjamin Harrington built this structure about 1800 in Shelburne, Vermont.〔http://www.heartofthevillage.com/rooms-and-accomodations/〕 Harrington, who owned and operated a nearby inn, used the building as a distillery to produce spirits to serve at his inn. The building later served as the Shelburne town barn but, after a period of disuse, the town gave the building to the Museum in 1947 when the Museum moved it to its present site.〔Hill, Ralph Nading and Lilian Baker Carlisle. The Story of The Shelburne Museum. 1955.〕
Constructed of hand-hewn timbers and rough planks, the Museum used the building as a storage and workshop space for several years while deciding how to renovate it as a textile gallery. Adopting the name “Hat and Fragrance,” which refers to the Museum’s collection of hatboxes and herbal sachets used to preserve early textiles, the Museum paneled the interior walls with maple, birch, and beech veneers in decorative patterns.〔http://www.shelburnemuseum.org/buildings_and_grounds/detail.php?id=11〕 The original structure still maintains this decorative paneling. The museum later built four additional rooms to provide further exhibition space.〔Shelburne Museum. 1993. Shelburne Museum: A Guide to the Collections. Shelburne: Shelburne Museum, Inc.〕
