Condition Report
Condition:

THE FIRST
The overall condition is good with the following:
Split/Separated Seams: There are some broken crocheted chains within the lacework throughout the jacket, most noticeably at the back shoulder blades, under the arms, and sleeves.
Losses: The bottom weights casings are degrading exposing the inner weights.
Fading/Color Change: There is some minor darkening throughout with some yellowing along with the front opening.
Soiling/Spots: Dark spots are noticeable on the right sleeve and around the waist. There are small orange spots on the front left chest.
Corrosion/Tarnish: The bottom weights have a white residue on the exterior.
Repairs/Alterations: There are snaps that suggest a missing element that goes along the neckline and front opening.

THE SECOND
The overall condition is very good with the following:
Split/Separated Seams: Though none were seen outside the repairs, it is likely there are further broken chains within the lacework.
Fading/Color Change: The jacket has slightly darkened.
Repairs/Alterations: There are a few repaired spots, located on the back shoulder blades, and bottom front right hemline.
