Chinese Embroidered Jacket

Exquisite hand embroidery worked with cream colored silk thread covers the entire surface of this silk jacket from the 1920's. As beautiful as an embroidered shawl but so much more versatile.

Made for the export market, this Chinese jacket is expertly embroidered with flowers, birds and meandering vines. The simple one button cardigan style of the jacket displays the hand work to perfection. The jacket is fully lined in lightweight silk and it is in excellent condition.
