Along the lower edge of the "flap" is beaded fringe band composed of circular silver beads and dark blue tubular beads forming a "zig-zag" line along the edge. The under layer of the veil is roughly cut along the lower and right edges. No fastener, to be pinned closed. No labels or tags in garment.
The gold trim on the tarha (head scarf) and the bead work on the niqab (veil) would not be seen on the streets in a city - strictly a Bedouin style.</p>Beige leather sandals2023-02-10T06:09:13-06:00https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc2048791/<p><a href="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc2048791/"><img alt="Beige leather sandals" title="Beige leather sandals" src="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc2048791/small/"/></a></p><p>Sandals of light brown leather constructed of narrow straps creating a circle at the top of the foot, slingback style, insole trimmed in white leather, very low heel.
