Description:: "A sort of Persian gentleman's kind of coat. Actually it is Persian lamb inside. All little pieces sewn together. All deep woodsy browns. Curiously like a painting which I prefer on the outside. I feel I'm wearing a Paul Klee! A simple surround which ties in back. Just bind it round with leather & let it be."
