Embroidered vest for a general/marshal – Discoloration

A very long time ago, the embroiderer of the day tried to remove stains from a vest he had embroidered for us by spot-cleaning it—a very bad idea.
The embroidery faded, and the yellow dye bled and spread unevenly around the pockets.

These yellow marks are barely visible when the garment is worn, as the affected areas are concealed underneath; the vest was featured in an exhibition for nearly ten years, and no one ever noticed a thing... Offered at a particularly attractive price.
Fits a chest measurement of up to 104 cm.
It is currently fitted with Marshal-rank buttons, but could just as easily serve a General if you replace them!
