About the Item

1970’s Italian silk faille cape with a luxurious sheared beaver fur lined interior. The fur provides cozy warmth to this design while the silk outer is a fun combination of lilac mauve, magenta and blue with a chevron pattern. The fur also sports a subtle chevron pattern with embroidery style stitching in a coordinating brown color. The pullover construction has hidden buttons that yield to a Mandarin style collar and there are hidden pockets at the front. The fun look is reminiscent of Missoni or Pucci designs from the same period … color blocking with a fashionable aesthetic. Made in Italy for Neiman Marcus. CONDITION Good vintage condition with what appears to be a subtle ink mark on the side of the collar, please see photograph 14. SIZING & MEASUREMENTS The size is not marked and the cape is basically a one-size-fits-all. The mannequin in the photographs is a size 4 and the former owner was a tall size 8. It has some weight and might be a little overwhelming for petite figures. Please see the following measurements for a guideline. When flat, the cape measures 53" across and 35" long from shoulder to hem. It will accommodate a shoulder length from 15" up to 19". The collar circumference measures 18" when buttoned.

19th Century Central Asian Embroidered Chyrpy Mantle Cloak
Located in Atlanta, GA
Late 19th Century woman's mantle cloak or Chyrpy with the artistic hallmarks of the Tekke tribe of Turkmenistan. Though the cloak appears to have sleeves, it is actually intended to drape from the head with the sleeve style tassels hanging in the back. The cloak is primarily made from pieced silk textiles with intricate stitching that creates traditional patterns including a stylized flower and geometric shapes. The hem is decorated with heavy silk fringe and the interior is lined in contrasting printed cotton fabrics. It is a beautiful piece of textile art worthy of display or drape it on the shoulders as shown in the photographs. This special piece is from the estate and private collection of Peggy Slappey, a well traveled lady who passionately collected textile art from Central Asia. Additional items from Ms. Slappey's collection are available on the Modern & Moore homepage including Ikat robes...
