Rare late 20s early 30s quilted bed jacket made from peachy pink silk, lined in cream silk and entirely hand stitched.
Great shoulder pads for structure. The stitching on the back of the jacket is deco styles and meets in a point at the bottom. There is a great example of “make do and mend” at the back of the neck (see last image), which makes this buy little jacket even more endearing. It is in generally good condition for it's age. There is a small break in the decorative stitching at the front of the jacket in two places. This is only visible on closer inspection.
It is nearly 100 years old and could tell some stories.
It has been lovingly stored all these years. It It is very cosy and would look cute worn over a dress, skirt or high waisted trousers as a cover up.
