Gieves Royal Navy collection


....beautiful early 20th century Royal Navy collection by Gieves we picked up recently. I am partially blaming my current sea obsession on the Great Mr Cabourn. Regardless, when we saw this at auction we just had to bid big!

1960's Trial Racer's Belstaff jacket







.....so I should be shooting all the amazing pieces we have just shipped back, but I do not know where to start, so back to that soon. In the mean time this is the piece that I have given my heart to this week, a 1960's Belstaff Trialmaster, came from the Trials racer that bought it back in '66. The patina is amazing! Check out the contrast in color from around the zip, this would have been bright red when he first rocked it, 40 years on it is a beautiful, almost black with red undertones. Enjoy....
