This striking Persian or Ottoman short jacket is a rare example of ceremonial textile artistry from the 19th century, crafted in deep burgundy velvet and lavishly embroidered in the traditional zari/zardosi technique. The design features intricate gold and silver metallic threadwork and sequin embellishments, forming a symmetrical display of floral and foliate motifs, topped by crescent moons, stars, and four architectural minarets—symbols often associated with Islamic imperial aesthetics and celestial reverence.
The jacket is tailored with long, straight sleeves and a structured silhouette typical of high-ranking formal attire. The interior is lined in a rich blue satin, providing both comfort and a visual contrast that enhances the opulence of the piece.
