Vintage Black Velvet/Fur Collar
Coat
This is a wonderful vintage velvet coat - perfect with any formal
attire! I believe the coat dates to the 1930's/1940's and is floor
length and fully lined. The coat has a center front opening with a
button closure - one large velvet button at the neckline and another
(which is missing) just above the waistline. The button holes are
velvet loops. The coat has a wonderful off-white fur collar. I do
not know what kind of fur it is, but looks like rabbit. The sleeves
are long and fairly straight. The coat has an inside tie and is
lined in cream. The coat has a very slender silhouette and is very
glamorous. There is a problem with the coat. It has an area where I
think the button was originally attached, that is torn and discolored
(see close-up photo). The waistline button, buttons to the side, so
I don't think this would show when the coat was worn, but it is
there. I'm sure a clever seamstress could repair the coat and it
would be well worth the repairs as it is lovely. The collar also
needs some minor repair. The seam around the edge of the back
portion of the collar has come undone and needs to be restitched.
The coat measures approximately: bustline=36"; waistline=28";
hips=38"; shoulder to shoulder width=15"; length (shoulder to
hemline)=56". Again, the coat does need repair and is priced as such.

Circa 1870's Black
Jacket
This antique bodice is cut in a boxy jacket style. The bodice is
all black
with a brown polished cotton lining. There is no boning. This
vintage jacket
has a rounded neckline and front button closure. There are three
crochet buttons still attached and a forth (does not match) which has
been sewn on the button hole. The bottom edge of the jacket has a
small black trim with fringe - much of the fringe is disintigrating.
The sleeves are cut on a curve with the top and bottom seam. They
are also decorated with the black trim and the fringe is still
attached. There are a few small moth holes in the jacket, but no
shattering. Measurements: bustline=38"; waistline=42".

Short Beaded
Vintage Jacket
This wonderful vintage piece is a cross between a cape and a short
jacket.
It has short sleeves and is decorated with beading and beaded
tassels. The beading is in good condition, but because of the
fragile nature of this item, some of the beads and tassels are
missing. Still a wonderful piece of workmanship!
