Opulence and glamour come together in this antique 1930’s Art Deco black silk velvet "Velour du Nord" opera coat. Made by: AWB Boulevard. An incredibly rare find, this stunning piece is nearly 100 years of age and has been exceptionally well preserved. If you scroll to the last photo, you’ll see an original 1930’s company advertisement for these coats - which is just the coolest thing. This opera coat embodies elements of sophistication, undeniable elegance, and you will exude exquisite taste.
The large semi-shawl shaped collar is made from premium genuine fox fur that has been maintained exceptionally well. The fox fur does not display any shedding, there are no tears or breakage of any sort, spots of missing fur, and the fur is still extremely soft to the touch. The uniquely rare design of contrasting stripe adds another level of blasé.
The coat features soft balloon shaped sleeves with inch long wrist cuffs, two functional black Bakelite buttons fastened down the front. Although there is no fabric content specified for the lining, this fully lined coat feels like it is lined in silk satin. Attached to the lining at the waist is a satin tie and hook closure, which you can tie in a bow to create a beautifully tailored fit.
Marked Fabric: "Velour du Nord," found written on the clothing tag still attached inside. The rich silk velvet drapes with regal weight and shine, creating a silhouette that feels both powerful and feminine.
Model is an XS, the coat is unpinned. Suitable for women's sizes XS, S, M. There is no size label. Please refer to measurements to ensure proper fit.

Shipping & Returns
Shipping & Returns
All sales are final. No returns or refunds.
Each treasure is hand selected, thoughtfully curated, a rare and beautiful unique piece of the past. I offer detailed descriptions, measurements, materials, and photographs that accurately display the condition of every offering. My team and I work hard to restore and sometimes re-make garments back to a condition of excellence and longevity. I do my best to disclose any and all clear or visible blemishes. However, due to the true nature of vintage and antique listings, there might be subtle signs of wear, consistent with age. Here at Sacred Garden Vintage, we believe imperfect characteristics carry an inherent charm, and display a non replicable historical imprint.
When making a purchase, you are agreeing to these return and refund policies. If you have any questions regarding any piece, send an email to Sacredgardenvintage@gmail.com, or, use the contact form to reach out with your inquiry before you complete your purchase.
Shipping:
Items will be shipped out between 2-3 business days of making your purchase. If you need me to ship out the product the next day, please email me or reach out via the contact form.
