Mine, Mine, Mine!! Another piece that I want to keep! This is a very fine black silk matte satin robe, cut straight down the sides with wide square sleeves (NOT kimono style) This robe has a thin woven wool layer inside with inner fine silk lining. It closes down the front with loops of fabric over little fabric knots, kind of like fros. There is decorative gold metallic cording in designs down the front and around the ends of the sleeves. The back has a more elaborate cording design of two gragon heads. Very cool!

Condition - Very good condition. There is some loose and missing cording from around the ends of the sleeves. It is obvious that some cord is missing, but it's not too terrible. There is a 1/2 inch hole in the silk on the front and about 10 teeny holes at about 1/8 inch each scattered on the piece. The holes aren't terribley notceable because the lining under the holes hides them some. Still a very nice, hard to find piece.
