Man's waistcoat with a round neckline, curving fronts and skirts reaching to between the middle and top of the thigh. Each front has a pocket and pointed pocket flap. The fronts and pocket flaps are made of white silk brocaded with silver filé and frisé, and silk floss in white and shades of green and pink, in a pattern of flowers and leaves in a diamond-shaped border. The back is pale blue satin worsted. The waistcoat and pockets are lined with fustian; the skirt and pocket-flap linings and front facings are pink silk taffeta. There are 10 buttonholes embroidered with silver along the left front edge with 10 silver passementerie buttons on the right front. The fronts are heavily pieced, indicating that the waistcoat has been made over from an earlier garment.
