Vintage wool half-coat / jacket 'Rila' (Tolbukhin, Bulgarian People's Republic, Soviet era). Historical context and production: the item belongs to the Soviet era, a period of close cooperation between the USSR and the socialist bloc countries. It was made at the famous state sewing enterprise 'Rila' (state economic association 'Rila') in the city of Tolbukhin (now Dobrich), Bulgarian People's Republic (BPR). Period: approximately the 1970s to 1980s (possibly a slightly early phase of the flourishing of Soviet textile production in the BPR). Material: 100% natural, dense, high-quality wool. Authentic fabric labels are carefully preserved inside: on one side the factory mark of 'Rila' (Tolbukhin), on the other the Soviet composition marking '100% WOOL'. Condition: original vintage. The item is not new and has a noble historical character. The wool fabric is in excellent condition for its age, but the fittings need attention: the original buttons are not in perfect condition, so replacing them or re-sewing new buttons is recommended. Style and details: thanks to the dense, sturdy wool and loose cut, this item is versatile: it can be worn
