Cream-colored waistcoat with a high, stand-up collar. The fabric features small, scattered gold and black embroidery across the body. A decorative border of gold and black embroidery runs along the right edge. A band of more intricate gold, black, and white embroidery is at the bottom. The buttons are on the left side and are mostly undone. The background is black. The waistcoat is by an unknown artist.
