Description: This is a RARE Vintage Women's Large Double D Ranch Wear 'Telling Stories' Leather Floral Beaded/Fringed Vest. The only one on eBay! The colorful Native American-style beadwork depicts beaded prairie flowers in the colors of: Coral Red, Turquoise Blue, white, brown, burgundy, and green. The fringes have green and red larger beads. The 'buttons' are imitation (but still eye-catching) antler, and are meant to be loosely tied at the bottom using the leather strips--helping to frame whatever finery and jewelry you're wearing underneath! Now--about the 'patina.' This being a vintage piece, its' picked up a number of small--almost invisible--stains, all roughly the same color of leather. The first stain is right next to the purely decorative middle antler button. It's roughly a centimeter wide, and 1/3 inch long. Next to the same button, perhaps two beads from the flower are missing, but the glue and stitching seems to remain intact. The beaded frills have 3 or 4 beads with a slight trace of the glue stain showing. The right-hand bottom front corner of the vest was accidentally 'dipped' (I'll say in BBQ sauce) covering an area of about 2 inches up the open edge, and a 1/2 inch along the bottom seam. there are five pinhead droplet stains just above it. Continuing to the back of the right side, behind the flower is a 1/2 inch long light brownish line, topped by a dark smudge a centimeter in size. The inner lining on the right front side has perhaps five small stains less than an inch in size, and are invisible while worn. So, the tag says 'LEATHER DRY CLEAN ONLY.' There's a good chance this colorful vest will look much better after dry cleaning, but remember to remind the staff to be careful of the beads! AS IS! Please study the pictures and contact me if you have any questions! Notice: I may have to alter the package size/weight out of consideration of protection--in which case I will absorb the difference in price. Hand Measurements shown in photos: 14.5 inches wide across back shoulder, 17 inches across the chest (under the arms), length from shoulder/neck seam down is 25 inches, and the length of the spine is 19.5 inches.
