| - Man's waistcoat, 1790s, British; white silk satin, embroidered flowers and feathers, altered 1870-1910 (en)
- Man’s waistcoat with a 1¼-inch standing collar (6.5 cm), revers, straight fronts and hem, hip-length, with a welted pocket on each front. The fronts, collar, revers and pocket welts are made of white silk satin. A ¼ inch (6 mm) blue silk ribbon is applied on the collar and pocket welts, along the left front and front hems. The waistcoat is embroidered with silk floss in white and shades of green, pink and blue, in a pattern of flowers and feathers on the pocket welts, revers and left front, the fronts embroidered with a pattern of repeating floral sprigs. There are 9 worked buttonholes along the left front with 9 embroidered buttons set back from the edge of the right front.
The waistcoat was altered in the late 19th century, probably for theatre costume or a studio prop. The fronts were relined, the pockets sewn closed and the back replaced. (en)
