Man's waistcoat with a standing collar, revers, welted pockets, straight fronts and hems, hip length. The fronts, collar, pocket welts and revers are made of white silk taffeta. The waistcoat is embroidered-to-shape with silk floss in yellow, blue and shades of pink, green, grey and purple, depicting a hunt with tigers and hounds below the pocket, and fantastical plants on the collar, revers, pocket welts and along the front edges and hems. The fronts are embroidered with a pattern of repeating floral sprigs. There are 13 worked buttonholes along the left front and 12 embroidered buttons set back from the right front edge.

The waistcoat was altered in the 19th century, probably for theatre costume. The fronts and front collars were cut away and resewn to new linings and the back replaced. The front collars were resewn to a new collar and lined with embroidery from another waistcoat. The left revers and right front collar are missing.
