Bunad silver Vestfold gentleman

Vestfold gentleman

The gentleman's Bunad from Vestfold does not exist in as many variations as the lady's Bunad. It is mainly The Red-shirt (Rødtrøye) that is used.

The silver is simple, buttons mostly. 12 small ones for the vest, 16 big and 6 small ones for the coat, and 5 big and 8 small ones for the pants. (The number of buttons may vary, so ask your tailor for the exact number.) Nowadays the neck button is most commonly used for the shirt, although it is possible to use the horn ring (Hornringen) from Telemark too.
