VICTORIAN LADIES COAT - Genuine 19th Century Antique in Remarkable Condition
Description : 29 Jun, 2023
PLEASE NOTE: If the item is still visible, it is available. I delete things when they sell.
A rare survivor at 120 years old, this beautiful Victorian ladies' coat is in remarkable condition for its age.
It has wonderful styling and details and, with some work by an expert sewer, it could still be worn.
It would fit a slender woman of medium height.
The coat is wool, with velvet collar, cuffs and covered buttons.
The deep shawl collar can be pulled up to warm the neck and the deep cuffs add drama. The best detail of all is the double row of small velvet covered buttons (24 in all) above the pair of deep vents at the back.
MEASURMENTS :
Chest: 32 to 34 in. (81.5 to 86.5 cm)
Shoulder Width (at back): 15 in. (38 cm)
Sleeve length (from top of shoulder seams: 23 1/2 in. (59.7 cm)
Back Length (from center of collar seam to hem): 51 in. (130 cm)
CONDITION DETAILS :
The outer fabric of the coat is all in quite good condition.
The coat pletely lined in silk, which is mostly intact, though there is shredding at the shoulders and hem. Because of its age, this lining will tend to tear easily and so if you want to wear the coat, it will need to be re-lined.
( If having this is done, I would suggest removing all the buttons and old lining first and then taking it to a specialist drycleaner for cleaning before re-lining. )
One of the large buttons (the middle one) on the front is missing. The bottom one could be moved up or all 3 could be replaced with matching velvet covered buttons the same size.
