Vintage Chinese Crane Bomber Jacket (Museum Collection) in either Marbled Velvet, Satin, Jersey, Or Waterproof Outer

This bomber jacket features artwork by Albert-Charles-Auguste Racinet (1825–1893). Racinet himself an accomplished artist, is best known today for publishing two major pictorial works on the history of design — Le costume historique and L'Ornement polychrome — while engraver and artistic director at the Parisian publisher Firmin Didot et Cie. Published in ten instalments between 1869 and 1873, the first iteration of L'Ornement polychrome (Colour ornament) is a visual record in 100 plates of the decorative arts from antiquity to the eighteenth century. Although based on past masterpieces of design, the fantastic reproductions in L'Ornement polychrome, carried out by a number of skilled commercial artists of the day, can be considered works of art in their own right. It is these works of art that feature on this gorgeous bomber jacket.
