Really I don't have a clue. No sign of a label anywhere. Seams are straight stitched and unfinished. No serging. Feels like a natural material, maybe a cotton/wool blend.
Puzzled about the age of this cardigan

Complete guess - 80s?
That is such a distinct pattern that I uploaded a photo of the back to google search by image. The horse pattern looks like it might have originated with Gucci, but their argyle version features alternating shades of horses in the diamonds.
Unfortunately I found the horses alternating with "H" on the Ali Express website - they may have been "borrowing" from someone other and earlier than Gucci, but hard to say.

Oh interesting! You think this is a Gucci knockoff? If so when is the Gucci sweater from? I can also try the reverse image search I guess. The quality seems better than I would expect from Ali Express? But no idea really.
I didn't buy it, just got a bug about its age as I couldn't figure it out.

There seemed to be contradictory estimates - like 80s vs 2024!
