This coat is a size 6 and I believe it is wool. It is approximately 42" long with side pockets and buttons. The buttons are a shade that I would describe as between gun metal grey and burnished brass with one line indentation through the center. It has a mandarin collar and in two seams down each side of the front of the coat. On the back, there are two seams down each side which stop around the mid-bodice area, where there is pleating. The coat is very loose fitting.
