Vintage patchwork Mao jacket with antique indigo katazomeand interior detailing. Each one is unique.  These Zhang Shang Zhen Jackets were collected by Indigo John in China from the countryside around Shanghai where some of these Mao era jackets can still be found.  They are hand patched using antique katazome patterned cloths. Please note that as the jackets are vintage 1960's & 70's and were worn in the countryside, they have signs of wear and tear.  Each jacket has been cleaned but some stains remain. The patches are made from antique katazome cloths. We have cushions made with the same fabric in our Heritage Home collection. Like this cushion. This Vintage Mao era jacket with antique indigo katazome patchwork runs small. The sleeve is 56cm Long.  The chest is 42cm wide. Please contact my directly to show you how it fits.
