DESCRIPTION
This elegantly timeless coat is of Swedish origin. It was likely made sometime in the late 1940s or early 1950s by Rappson. The fabric is an Italian grey twill. The coat is double-breasted with three rows of buttons, two of which are used. It features horizontal front pockets with flaps, and there is a buttonhole on the left lapel. The back has a belt and a vent. Inside, it is fully lined and has two inner pockets, one on each side. Both are fastened with flaps and buttons.
Overall, the coat is in very fine condition, with an excellent overall impression. Upon closer inspection, however, there are a couple of minor fabric damages. There is a tiny hole in one of the sleeves, as well as a small damage near the armhole. These imperfections do not affect the overall appearance when the coat is worn. The lining is in very good condition overall. Please refer to the images to form your own opinion of the coat's condition.
