Description

This black Suzani jacket lets its purple, red, and light blue florals really pop against the black velvet base, framed by a mustard gold vine trim running down the front edges and hem. Two embroidered patch pockets set this piece apart from the rest of the collection, adding a practical, folk artisan touch you won’t find on our other styles. It’s one of the more wearable, everyday jackets in our collection of Suzani jackets.

Care Instructions

This black Suzani jacket is a House of Stala piece, made with natural cotton velvet and finished with detailed embroidery. We stand behind the quality of our jackets, and part of that means making sure you know how to look after this one properly.

• Dry clean only (recommended). A professional cleaner will protect the shape and keep the purple, red, light blue, and mustard gold threads from bleeding into the black velvet.
• Use a handheld steamer for wrinkles rather than a hot iron.
• If hand washing is unavoidable, stick to cold water and don’t let it soak.
• Never put it in a washing machine.
• Keep the iron away from the embroidered areas and patch pockets. Direct heat can damage the stitching.
• Store on a hanger, out of direct sunlight, to keep the black base and colorful embroidery from fading.

This jacket deserves a little extra care, but it’s simple, and it pays off for years of wear.
