A French military cotton-linen colonial jacket, estimated from the 1920s.
A special acquisition.
Constructed in a lightweight cotton-linen blend, designed for wear in warm climates.
With a substantial linen content, the fabric retains that distinctive fluid, textured movement characteristic of linen weaves.
The back yoke features that subtle, carved quality often seen in examples from this era—quite beautiful in its own right.
Seven front buttons and two chest pockets constitute its straightforward detailing.
The neutral white colorway renders this a versatile piece, accommodating itself to nearly any styling approach.
The fit runs small, making it suitable for those of a more slight build.
Small punctures and soiling are present, though the condition remains commendable given its age.
No damage of consequence interferes with wear, leaving this piece entirely wearable.
Seldom encountered, this remains a rare find. Should you have been seeking such a piece, this presents itself as an uncommon opportunity.
