Very good like new condition, very rare. Decorated with nine large dragons (one inside) with five claws pursuing flaming pearls, in fine-gilt wrapped metallic gold threads, the bulging eyes fabricated in white, amidst clouds and be-ribboned auspicious emblems, Shou medallions and peony flowers, above rocks emerging from tumultuous waves on top wide Lishui strips. Same pattern repeats on both sleeves before ribbed guards and horseshoe cuffs. Please refer to the photos for more details.
Length: 144CM, 56-3/4"

From the French estate of Colonel L.
