Black and Gunmetal Chandelier Crystal Cutaway Waistcoat Vest, Hong Kong-M, 1960s
About the Item
Weighing nearly three pounds, every square inch of this remarkable vest is covered--in some areas up to a half an inch high--in enormous faceted beads, sequins or bugle beads. And though the vest is predominantly black, the aurora borealis finish on assorted sequins also casts shards of green, blue and purple light at certain angles. Like a wearable chandelier!
