Description

Fine tailored tricot wool example of the special Evening Dress Jacket with matching vest. The jacket is complete with dress aiguilette. The bullion breast eagle appears to have been replaced and, in fact, might have been replaced with a reproduction eagle. The button-chain for closure is also present, although the chain's finish has worn to base metal. Aiguilette is in fine condition and is attached to a button beneath the lapel.  The vest is of matching tricot wool with 5 button front. Both articles are lined with cream colored silk material. The maker's label has been removed as can be seen in the photos. There is a small area of stitching (for a dart) of the lining that has come loose, as shown in the photos and some minor spots to the lining, also pictured. Overall in excellent condition.
