Description
- Manteau en drap de laine et velours noir
- woll and velvet
Condition
Generally good, there are a couple of tiny holes in the lining. The length seems a little short for the date but the hem finishing is inconclusive. It is possible that the coat was worn over a matching velvet skirt to give it the longer silhouette.
