Buyi Jacket Anshun. Guizhou, China Silk appliqué and embroidery. 51½"x 22." This handsome blouse is best for display, as the back has an "unfinished" look; it is only 13½"long, and was originally covered by another piece of the wearer's costume.  It is a rare garment, from the first half of the 20th century. The condition is good, with a couple of very small frayed areas.    $485 E-5287  Larger full view photo               Large detail photo
