[h-cost] 18th c. man's waistcoat on ebay

2011-01-26 Thread Kimiko Small
Hello all,

This just came over a community I am on, and I thought folks here might be 
interested in the eye candy. The embroidery is what caught my eye. Not my 
period, so no idea if this is good or what. Just pretty.

http://cgi.ebay.com/Georgian-18thC-finely-embroidered-waistcoat-Provenance-/360338397966?pt=UK_Antiques_AntiqueTextiles_EH&hash=item53e5d79b0e

The item is still available if someone really is interested. I just figured the 
photos would be nice to look through.

Wow, Kimiko, thanks for posting. John Boehner's mauve tie doesn't  
quite come up to this standard!


I hope Bjarne is getting a look at this!

It's lovely, but someone has some crossed wires somewhere. It's the garment 
itself that dates from the time of Pitt the Younger, not the period when the 
last wearer is said to have been Speaker!
