sabi wabi -all wool leather trimmed jacket

This deep gray heather wool  jacket has a leather rimmed collar and at the edges of the pocket's close flap.   It has been washed by hand and line dried, losing none of its shape, body or pliability of trim.  Besides the St. Johns's label, which work mostly in acrylics, I don't know of any designer doing anything this durable and versatile.   Altered and handcrafted embellishments by sabi wabi, one of a kind ever.


It can be viewed at sort-of-vintage KULTURAs books in Dupont Circle or call 202-588-1270.
