This Christmas-colored 1980s vintage Chanel jacket is a rare find. We adore the wool tweed fabric, soft and beautiful, in a dark red tone. The trademark buttons show Coco Chanel's profile, made by Maison Desrues, which manufactures House of Chanel buttons since the 1960s.
With the double-breasted cut, the heavy chain at the hem, the signature front pockets each adorned with a button, the intricate stitching along the front and at the cuffs: this piece ticks all the right boxes for us and would be a perfect addition to your Christmas list.
This piece comes with two spare buttons attached to the hem; a rare attribute for a jacket of this age.
Size: size label says FR38, suitable for sizes FR38 and FR40.
Condition: jacket exterior is in excellent condition. The lining is in very good condition, we found tiny pin sized mark on the lining, not noticeable (please refer to the images). Overall very good condition.
