Materials: Off white muslin, colored
silk floss, gold metallic thread.
Condition: Embroidery is in
excellent condition. In the cotton cloth there are two small tears,
under 1/2"; one is in the embroidery the other in the towel section.
Measurements: 21" x 54".
Comments: The workmanship on this towel
is much more opulent than that found on the typical embroidered Turkish
towel or head scarf. The embroidery is predominately done in
dival, the goldwork that embellishes Turkish textiles. The very
beautiful design motif of houses, floral vines and trees is worked
in peach, turquoise, cream and gold.
