It is most likely of Swedish origin, \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003ealthough there is also a possibility that it was produced in Britain. \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eThe construction of the lining around the inside pockets is not entirely characteristic of Swedish tailoring, although examples such as this do occasionally occur. The jacket is made from a navy blue pinstripe wool cloth, a fabric we would strongly associate with this period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\" data-end=\"655\" data-start=\"326\"\u003eThe jacket is double-breasted with three rows of buttons, two of which are functional. It features straight flapped hip pockets and a slightly slanted breast pocket. The lapels are characteristically wide for the period, with a buttonhole in each lapel. The cuffs are finished with three buttons. The back is plain, with no vent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\" data-end=\"826\" data-start=\"657\"\u003eThe interior is fully lined and is particularly well made, reflecting a high standard of craftsmanship. It is fitted with neatly jetted inside pockets, one on each side.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\" data-end=\"1484\" data-start=\"828\"\u003eOverall, the jacket presents well and has no immediately obvious flaws. Closer inspection, however, reveals a few minor imperfections. The most noticeable is a small area of damage to the cloth beneath the left-hand pocket. A skilled tailor should be able to improve its appearance. There is also some light discolouration to the lining, although this is, of course, not visible when the jacket is worn. Taken as a whole, the quality of the tailoring and craftsmanship far outweighs these minor defects. Please examine the photographs carefully and form your own assessment of the condition. All imperfections have been thoroughly documented in the images.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\" data-end=\"1494\" data-start=\"1486\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-end=\"1494\" data-start=\"1486\"\u003eSIZE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\" data-is-only-node=\"\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-end=\"1733\" data-start=\"1496\"\u003eThe jacket corresponds approximately to a modern \u003cstrong data-end=\"1571\" data-start=\"1545\"\u003eEU 46–48 (UK\/US 36–38)\u003c\/strong\u003e.
