This 1920s cocoon cape was made from a lush black velvet material with stunning gold silk lining that offers a decadent contrast. An iconic look of the era, this cape envelopes you with a rounded body and ruched 'hobble' style skirting that is out of this world. Ruched detail at the top of the shoulders gives excellent texture, with a sweet off-center bow at the nape of the neck that gives a subtle yet ever-so-lovely bit of adornment. This cape falls to the ankle with an asymmetrical hem. This cape pairs well with just about anything making it very versatile. No closures; would look excellent with an antique clasp. A highly collectible piece.

Condition:
Very good-excellent: Exceptionally well condition considering age; was very lovingly stored. A few light scratches on the velvet and one area where the plush is a bit flattened. Silk lining is overall excellent, however there is some stress along the folds around the neck that can easily be patched without it being very distracting. Cape can be safely worn and presents beautifully.
