Stunning rectangular head cover in high quality cotton, fabulously embroidered with silver beads and silk tassels. A rarity!

Oh yes. This is great. I love those clusters of tassels at the corners.

So do I, It must have a stunning effect when worn.

Dear Betty and Thelma; Many thanks for your messages. Both of these rectangular head covers and as well the more neutral black triangular head cover (I have two of those as well) are fine but very heavy due to the silver beads embroideries. The tassels are marvelously soft. Both of these rectangular pieces have no defects whatsoever. I assume that the black more neutral triangular units were worn every day while the rectangular, much finer units were for special occasions. They are truly a delight! With kind regards. Peter
