Man's waistcoat of black silk satin with round neckline, curving front edge and curved, two-piece sleeves ending between wrist and elbow. Each front has a shaped pocket flap. The front neckline, front edges, pocket flaps, wrist edge and around the pockets are embroidered-to-shape with black silk twist in a pattern of flowers, leaves and ribbon.
The back of the waiistcoat is made of the same black satin. The waistcoat is lined with coarse linen; the skirts and front edges faced with black silk sarsenet. There are 12 worked buttonholes on the left front corresponding to 12 black silk thread-covered buttons on the right front. There are 3 of the same buttons under each pocket opening.
The waistcoat has been altered probably during the life of the wearer, to make the upper sleeve and back larger, with insertions in the back sleeve seam and back armhole.
