1800s Embodied Enchantment Waistcoat | Antique Vintage Victorian Vest of Ivory Silk and Cotton w/White Silk Bird & Floral Embroidery | Small

Be a beguiling guy embodying enchantment in this waistcoat from the 1800's! Ecru silk displays beautiful embroidery of flowering vines running parallel to the opening and topping the shawl lapel. Mirrored birds pluck berries from the vines and the white silk floss shimmers with each movement. Ivory cotton makes a full lining and is used for the back where adjuster straps cinch and fasten with a detailed brass buckle. Hidden by a placket are six shell buttons fastening the front and two curved welted pockets make a lovely enhancement. This vest is in good, very wearable antique condition and still presents beautifully though there is some small shattered spots that are structurally backed by cotton.

Measurements taken flat and doubled where appropriate:

Chest: 38"
Front Length: 22.5"
Back Length: 21.25"
