Geoffrey B. Small Men's 4 Button Jacket in Piacenza 1733 Alashan Breath Cashmere

Geoffrey B. Small men’s 4 button jacket in Piacenza 1733 Alashan Breath cashmere.

One of only three pieces of its kind, each hand made exclusively for Blue Mountain School.

Created from Small’s classic 4 button, single breasted, notch lapel jacket pattern from his extensive tailoring research, cut in the lightest pure cashmere suiting cloth 'Alashan Breath' woven by Fratelli Piacenza 1733 Spa in Pollone Biella, Italy. Combined with hand dyed pure silk 'Clouds' print raso satin cloth made exclusively by the Brenna family in Como, Italy, and pure cupro Bemberg-type sleeve linings woven by Tessitura Mauri in Como, Italy, for maximum comfort and softness.

Features canvas horsehair front and collar interfacings entirely hand padstitched, hand built 4 button real working surgeon's sleeves, hidden lapel button for alternative styling, hand cut welt, besom and flap pockets, Italian satin taped seaming and hand sewn hems inside, remarkable artisan-made 'Alessandro' tinted horn buttons created exclusively for Small by the legendary Fontana family of buttonmakers in Parma, Italy, and 13 real hand-stitched buttonholes in pure silk Bozzolo Reale Milano Seta thread, each one requiring at least 10-12 minutes to cut and sew.

Each piece is individually hand dyed in Small's workrooms at Cavazere Venezia to achieve its unique patina, drape, softness and colour.

Hand signed and numbered by the designer.
