This military garment features a straight cut with a classic lapel collar and a four-button front closure with visible military-themed gold buttons. On the left chest, an embroidered wing insignia is sewn directly onto the jacket, typical of an aviator or pilot's uniform. Two flap pockets with gold buttons are visible on the upper part, complemented by two lower flap pockets without visible buttons.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe epaulets are decorated with embroidered braids and a distinctive motif, likely attributed to an officer's rank, while each sleeve features two gold braids sewn horizontally near the cuffs, indicating a specific rank in military aviation. The interior lining, in a darker tone, is partially visible, showing a slight patina and signs of wear consistent with a vintage garment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe uniform navy blue color is well preserved, with a slight variation in tone due to lighting and the fabric's natural wear. The gold buttons, clearly visible, add a touch of sparkle and contrast. No manufacturer's markings or size indications are visible on the front of the jacket.
