A beautiful, medium-weight bespoke coat by Bernard Weatherill, tailored in 1961.
This is a glorious coat. It would make the ideal showing coat for major event such as HOYS, or for warm 'high days and holidays' hunting.
It currently carries a navy velvet collar.
It is in wonderful condition & the most elegant shape.
There is a tiny fabric scuff on the right wrist but this is not in any way significant.
