I don't think this is meant to close, it just looks as if it could. Modern suits have non-practical buttons on the sleeves, a holdover from when they really would have buttoned.

To me it must be made with a larger piece ajusted for the buttons. Isnt this wrong? Should it not be that when closed with the buttons, the embroidery overlaps eachother? I am confused!
