Condition

Lots of life left!
- This piece was missing original buttons so we replaced all of them with period vintage buttons for a matching look. There are more buttons than loops, but that is the original pattern that we worked from...perhaps the extras were for decoration!
-A seam has popped on the lining along the bottom of the coat (that’s how we were able to investigate the thick lining)—I’ve left as is.
- Some repairs to the lining on the inside of the shoulder. The silk had started to split so I put a few stitches in (luckily, not noticeable at all when worn!)
- A couple tiny black spots on lining
