Larsson, based in Älvdalen, a small community in central Sweden. It was bespoke tailored sometime during the 1910s or 1920s; unfortunately, it is not labelled with an exact year. At this time, garments were still relatively rarely marked with dates and names. The dinner jacket is made from a black wool cloth with a smooth handle and no pronounced texture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1209\" data-start=\"575\"\u003eThe jacket is single-breasted and fastens with a link button. The button is covered and patterned, typical of the period. It features horizontal piped front pockets and a slightly inward-slanted breast pocket. The angle of the breast pocket is highly characteristic of the era, not only for formal wear but for jackets in general. The lapels are wide and pointed, faced in black silk. The cuffs are finished with three covered and patterned buttons. The back is straight and has no vent. Internally, the jacket is fully lined and includes an inside pocket on the right-hand side. The sleeves are lined in a wide-striped cotton fabric.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1580\" data-start=\"1211\"\u003eThe waistcoat is single-breasted and fastens with four buttons, all of which are covered and patterned. All buttons throughout the suit are original. It has three pockets: one breast pocket on the left-hand side and two lower pockets, one on each side. The back features an adjustable buckle. Internally, the waistcoat is lined in the same fabric as the jacket sleeves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1998\" data-start=\"1582\"\u003eThe trousers are flat-fronted with vertical front pockets. They feature external brace buttons at the waistband and a button fly. At the back, there is a small fishtail and an adjustable buckle. They also have a single piped back pocket on the right-hand side. Notably, the trousers do not have braid or silk side stripes; they are simply too early for this detail, as trousers of this period were made without them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"2610\" data-start=\"2000\"\u003eIn terms of condition, we assess the dinner suit as very good overall. There is some internal discolouration, primarily around the armholes of the jacket and waistcoat. However, there is no notable damage to the cloth, and the silk facings are in exceptionally fine condition. With dinner suits of this age, it is otherwise common to see significant wear to the silk; it should be borne in mind that this suit is over 100 years old. The minor defects present, limited to light discolouration, are not visible when the suit is worn. Please study the photographs carefully and form your own assessment of the condition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\" data-end=\"2624\" data-start=\"2617\" data-section-id=\"1xwbhmo\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSIZE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"3314\" data-start=\"2626\"\u003eThe sizing is somewhat complex, and we will explain the dimensions of each component as clearly as possible.
