- A man's coat of dusky-pink silk velvet, with horizontal rows of cut and uncut pile. The neckline is round with a narrow standing collar (2.5 cm). The shaped, two-piece sleeves are fitted, ending with a round cuff (12 cm at top, 13 cm at bottom). The coat fronts curve from neck to hem, with skirts below the hip arranged in pleats at the sides. There is scalloped pocket flap on each front at hip level. The pockets are lined with linen, and the pocket flaps with cream silk satin. The coat fronts, cuff and pocket flaps are interlined, probably with buckram. The edges of the coat fronts are embroidered with strips of parchment wrapped with silk to resemble a string of white beads alternating with smaller black ones. Inside this line of embroidery is a wide border embroidered in coloured flowers entwined with black and white 'necklace'. The same border edges the cuffs, the collar, the pocket flaps and pockets, the coat front at the side openings and the back vent. There are 10 velvet-covered, embroidered-to-shape buttons on the right front. Only the 3 buttons below the top 2, have corresponding buttonholes. There is one button below the pocket flaps and one above the pleats.
The coat may have been worn in the theatre in the 19th century. The buttonholes have been sewn up, the coat relined with white silk taffeta and none of the buttonholes cut in the lining. The hook and eye on the front edges were probably added at this time. The pleats have been rearranged, and the back pleat folded under the new lining. The cuffs have been detached and the sleeve under them extended with linen. (en)
- A man's coat, 1765-1775, English; Dusky pink cut and uncut silk velvet, embroidered multicolour floral (en)
