Extraordinary long Afghan vest made of rustic violet silk, completely hand-embroidered on the front with a precision, beauty, and exuberance that can only come from the past.
The embroidery is done in intense tones that contrast with the aged violet due to the passage of time.
The silk retains its irregular texture, with small variations and wear typical of a piece with a history. The interior is fully lined.
It is a piece halfway between clothing and a collector’s item.
It is not a reproduction, nor a piece of current production. It is an antique garment found and selected with great difficulty by me, full of beauty, originality, and history.
