Handira are woven in natural undyed wool, decorated with stripes and fringe, and finished with metal sequins. This St. Frank textile was created by a bride, her mother, and female relatives in preparation for the wedding, providing a special time for the bride to be educated about marriage. The handira was worn by the bride as a decorative cape during the wedding ceremony and then turned over and used as a rug on the floor of her home after the wedding.
Framed dimensions are 26.75" W x 22.75" H.
The textile is carefully applied to a flax linen substrate, which provides a border between the textile and frame. This product is available in our lucite frame. A miniature version of our signature gold St. Frank plate is featured in the bottom right-hand corner of the piece.
