There's some sort of stiffening in the peak but it doesn't feel like wood. I guess it's plastic but I'm not unstitching it to find out.
The proprietor of Salmagundi said they are usually plastic nowadays; he said he could try to retain the original wood if I really wanted, but I don't think I have that much of an attachment to the material—I told him to do whatever has the best chance of succeeding. The cap itself is the important thing.
Of course my cap isn't anything like as old as yours- though it does claim to be made of REAL Yorkshire tweed.

Thank you. I was becoming very worried about it.
