Woman's
Semi-formal Surcoat
China, nineteenth century
Deep navy silk satin with gold couched embroidery. Because of the style
and quality of the surcoat, it may have been appropriate for a prince
or princess. The garment is less formal as the roundels contain cranes
and flowers rather than dragons.
