It is crafted from a densely woven black wool cloth, a typical suiting fabric of the period.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe jacket is single-breasted and fastens with two buttons. All buttons are covered and elegantly decorated. It features horizontal front pockets with flaps and a breast pocket, and there is a buttonhole on the left lapel. The cuffs are finished with three covered buttons. The back is straight with a single vent. Internally, it is fully lined and has two inside pockets: a standard horizontal pocket on the right-hand side and a vertical pocket on the left, neatly concealed with an opening along the lining seam.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe waistcoat is single-breasted and fastens with five buttons, also covered. It has four front pockets - two at chest height and two lower down. At the back, there is a strap for size adjustment. The lining features a rather eye-catching patterned fabric, which is typical for waistcoats of this era. The waistcoat is very well constructed internally and includes an inside pocket with flap and button fastening on the left-hand side.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe trousers are period-correct, with a flat front, vertical front pockets, and buttons for braces on the outside of the waistband. They have a button fly and an additional extension tab to help keep the trousers properly positioned. At the back, they feature a so-called “fish tail” with a buckle for size adjustment.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe condition is outstanding, close to as-new. The only sign of wear is minimal discolouration in the lining around the armholes. Overall, the condition is as close to perfect as one could expect - particularly remarkable considering the suit is over a century old. From time to time, we offer garments we describe as “museum quality”; this is one such example. Please study the photographs and form your own opinion of the condition.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSIZE\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn terms of size, it corresponds to a modern \u003cstrong\u003eEU 46 (UK\/US 36)\u003c\/strong\u003e.
