Filbert looks as though he has dressed for a cooler, more formal world than the one around him. His snug waistcoat and jacket, paired with a thinning crown and comfortable middle, give him a memorable, slightly over-dressed shopkeeper’s air.

Filbert is one of Gilbert’s identical octuplet brothers and runs Filbert’s Fine Leather Emporium. When he appears, he is thick in the middle and thin on top, wearing a waistcoat and jacket that sit more snugly than local fashion and seem oppressive in the heat. The text gives little more about him beyond his place among the brothers and his shop.
Description
Filbert is middle-aged, thick through the middle, and thin on top. He wears a waistcoat and jacket with a snug fit, a more buttoned-up style than the local fashion and an uncomfortable choice for the warm climate. His overall impression is that of a shopkeeper who favors formal layers; specific details of his face, hair color, eyes, and height are not given.
