      An extraordinary 19th-century historical jacket or fitted bodice in deep plum-purple, richly embellished with elaborate gold-toned floral embroidery.

      Its sculpted silhouette, short shaped sleeves and beautifully aged textile surface make it a compelling piece for collectors, costume archives and editorial display.

      A remarkable 19th-century historical jacket, distinguished by its fitted construction and richly decorated purple textile.

      The garment is shaped closely through the torso, with a softly curved neckline, short sleeves and elongated front sections that emphasize its architectural period silhouette.

      The most captivating detail is the ornate gold-toned floral embroidery, arranged in scrolling botanical motifs across the outer fabric and sleeves.

      The deep plum-purple ground has a subtle sheen and visible age-related patina, while the interior reveals a natural brown-beige woven lining and the garment’s original structural construction.

      Areas of hand finishing, worn seams and surviving embroidery give the piece an unmistakably historical presence.

      Best suited to textile collectors, costume research, styling, photography or careful display, this is a one-of-a-kind vintage garment whose imperfections form part of its character and history.

      Due to its fragile condition, it should be handled with particular care. 

      Only one available.

      A note on vintage: every piece has lived a life before. Signs of time are part of its story and uniqueness.
