Circa 19th Century Chinese Silk Embroidered Rabbit Fur Lined Coat

Wearing this coat means wearing a small piece of textile history: every floral and every everyday scene embroidered across its silk was worked entirely by hand, a record of the cultural artistry it came from. Lined in rabbit fur and closed with traditional loop-and-knot buttons, it was built for real wear, not just display. This is the kind of provenance-driven piece a serious collector waits years to find.
