French Court Gentelman

This French Court gentleman is dressed in a suit coat with gold trim and hand made buttons very small buttons. His vest is made of very rare 17th century silk embroidered fabric a small piece of this fabric was given to me as a gift and I saved it for this special? fellow. The vest? also has even smaller very small buttons.  His trousers are a turquoise silk? the knee closer also have the small buttons. I made him a plique a jour pin to decorate his stock ( this technique is where a transparent enamel is fused with pure silver creating a small window or enclosed piece of class) the silver is twisted and falls to a tassel. It amuses me that the description of his clothes takes less to to write about than the lady French Court doll but twice as long to construct. I think he has a wonderful authentic look? and like the lady and the originals he is anatomically correct.
