There are 3 horizontal looped rows of gold braided bullion on the front with a gold button in each outer loop. The collar is a small standup and the cuffs have a row of wide black piping and thinner gold bullion about 4" from cuff edge. The coat is lined in a black soft brushed cotton. The pants are matching burgundy wool with black stripes down each pant leg.

There is light fraying on the top edge of the collar. Please keep in mind the age of this coat as it should be professionally cleaned. This is a beautiful collectable and needs to be seen to be appreciated.
