I just bought a genuine antique Arlesian wool cape, with lovely double buttons and lace, and the lovely vendor just casually threw in a 1900 waistcoat for free. Perfectly sized, black with two shining rows of buttons. 40β¬, the whole of it. Originally, 100β¬.
So pretty! That cape shall be very well loved!
It would have been sold to the cloth merchant to become an expensive commodity at one of those curated antiqueries, poor thing.
