Item Details
Description
The frock coat’s body is single-breasted and made of a pale drab or butternut-colored superfine, with a standing collar with half-facings of maroon cassimere and lines with maroon, glazed serge. Its breast and sleeves are finished with maroon, corded buttonholes set on in herringbone form; that on the breast set with three rows of buttons, those on the sleeves with one at the center of the V. The English-made buttons are gilded and bear a coat of arms, not currently identified. The frock coat is a type of livery uniform typically worn by a nobleman’s coachman or his estate’s game warder. The coat evidences heavy use, with staining and extensive mothing. A piece of pale drab superfine produced by K&P Historical Textiles is included with this lot for filling the hole, should restoration be contemplated.
