This is an absolutely stunning victorian mourning jacket. The pictures really do not do it justice. The intricate jet beadwork is superb and all in tact, as are the 8 buttons, 6 of which adorn the front and a further two on the back at the tiny corsetted waist.
Shaped beautifully into a peplem at the rear.
I have never seen a finer example. The velvet too is like it was made yesterday.
Measurements as follows :-
22 inch waiste
13” arm pit across
