Back height 97 cm, front height 92 cm, shoulders 38 cm, sleeves 51 cm, size 82 cm There is no recent or contemporary addition... Everything is original... the fabric seems older than the cut that is before 1850. Rare and original piece!

The rest is clean without a hitch and therefore in excellent antique condition.
