Hearst Museum object titled Jacket, accession number 9-21197, described as Woman’s outer jacket, hearthstone pattern. General impression is of a black jacket with dense white and red decoration on sleeves and upper back. Jacket has center-front opening and partialy slit side seams, stand-up collar, and sleeves. Collar, sleeves, and upper back heavily decorated; otherwise, jacket is plain. Fully lined - and note that lining of sleeves is itself fully lined! Excepting decorative portions, exterior of jacket is black commercial cloth. Both lower fronts are edged with blue cloth, extensions of blue lining. Blue lining sewn to exterior of jacket at all seams except at wrists where blue lining is folded over and sewn to an additional layer of lining, these black. Exterior and linings of sleeves are separate at wrists; wrist edges of exterior sleeves are unhemmed and appear unfinished. Lacks buttons or other fasteners. Stand-up collar has separate piece of cloth attached; this has batik (apparently free-hand) pattern on blue. Top and sides of pattern cloth are bordered with red cloth. Extensive, almost completely symmetrical decoration extends in broad panel across back and around sleeves. Complex construction also adds layers of cloth and thread to jacket. Decoration consists of extensive embroidey (mainly in white thread, with use of black and yellow thread) on square, rectangular, and linear pieces of red cloth; these pieces of red cloth then directly appliqued onto large piece dark blue/black handwoven cloth (squares and rectangles) , or onto strips of white cloth (the linear pieces of red cloth), which are then appliqued onto blue/black cloth. Thin margins of handwoven cloth between appliqued cloths are embroidered with yellow thread. Blue/black handwoven cloth attached to jacket by reverse applique. Decoration also includes squares of yellow cloth appliqued onto red diamonds appliqued onto white diamonds, or edged with white embroidery, and white cloth strips, all directly appliqued onto black outer layer of jacket.

Lower edge of fronts to shoulders: 70cm; of back, 76.5cm. Side to side: 55-57 cm. Stand-up collar: 8.5cm H. Right sleeve: 37cm shoulder to wrist, 43 cm around at wrist end.
