Womens Quilted Jacket Appraisal

Quilted Jacket with Decorative Floral Snap Fastener

This item is a portion of a brown quilted garment, likely a jacket or waistcoat, featuring a distinctive decorative metal snap fastener. The fabric is a durable synthetic or cotton-blend twill with a diagonal weave, featuring a diamond-shaped quilting pattern held by uniform machine stitching. The central focal point is a circular metal fastener consisting of an outer rim and an inner decorative disc featuring an embossed sunflower or floral motif. The metal shows a dark, aged patina with significant brassing or wear on the raised outer ring, suggesting frequent use and mechanical friction. This hardware is secured to the fabric via four small peripheral holes, through which thin wire or heavy thread attaches the ornate center to the base. The construction is reminiscent of late 20th-century outdoor or equestrian apparel. There are visible signs of wear, including minor surface scuffing on the metal and the presence of stray fibers and pet hair on the textured fabric. No visible maker's marks are discernible on this specific component, but the level of detail on the custom hardware indicates a quality manufacturing process intended for casual or performance wear.
