Lot 227: A Trio of Vintage Menswear Including Arancraft Wool Sweater, Marks & Spencer Blazer, and Lyle & Scott Jacket
This collection consists of three individual garments of varying styles. Item one is an Arancraft crew neck sweater crafted from heavyweight wool yarn in a mottled grey and black marl colourway. The piece exhibits traditional Irish Aran knitting patterns, specifically central honeycomb and cable stitches, and is finished with a ribbed collar, cuffs, and hem. Item two is a Marks & Spencer navy double-breasted blazer dating from approximately the 1980s or 1990s. The jacket is constructed from a felted wool or wool-blend fabric and features prominent peak lapels, two front flap pockets, and a breast pocket. It is detailed with gold-tone metal crest buttons on the front and cuffs and is fully lined in black synthetic fabric. Item three is a Lyle & Scott Junior lightweight Harrington-style zip-up jacket. The garment features a synthetic nylon outer shell with a black mesh lining and an embroidered yellow eagle logo on the left chest. Construction details include two side pockets with press-stud closures, elasticated cuffs, an elasticated hem, and a full-length metal zipper with a cord pull-tab.
Condition report:
The Arancraft sweater appears in good pre-owned condition without significant pulls or defects. The Marks & Spencer blazer is structurally sound but shows significant surface lint, dust, and stray fibres, requiring professional cleaning. The Lyle & Scott jacket shows signs of regular wear, specifically pilling and bobbling to the ribbed inner collar.
