A stunning 1920s cocoon coat! Soft brown velvet with a large fur (beaver?) shawl collar. The ends of the sleeves are embroidered with a (what I'm interpreting as) pussy willow design. The coat closes with one large button and a small snap at the top. Fully lined. A truly remarkable piece of history that continues to make a fashion statement!
