Chinese Silk Embroidered Han Style Lady’s Robe

Pictures below showing a Chinese late Qing dynasty (19th century) front-opening Han style lady's jacket embroidered with pale blue and white satin stitch flowers with Peking knot (forbidden stitch), a time consuming and exacting embroidery technique, accents on a cobalt blue silk satin ground. There are three metal buttons securing the front.
