Vintage Chinese Red Patchwork Embroidered Quilted Vest 3D Frog Panda Bamboo Dove

No tags, probably handmade and one of a kind. Chinese / Asian Ethnic Folk Art tradition. Fabric hook buttons down front.
Animals are 3D felt, like appliques. Back is quilted & top has a frog, and his mouth opens. The rest of the other 3D patches are a snake, lizard / salamander, scorpion, and bug.
A couple small discolorations on the inside lining and outside front (see pics), would probably come out in a soak.

Very unique statement piece!

Excellent preowned condition and ready to wear!
Bust: 20 inches pit to pit / 40 inches full bust
Length: 25.5 inches shoulder to hem
