This special wrap was worn outside, or on top of, the long dance dresses for added decoration and prestige. Made from raffia.
This panel has faded considerably. There are 11 small holes or frayed areas and 2 patched holes (shown in detail).
CARE: The cloth is not fragile and can be pinned onto a wall or panel for display. To eliminate wrinkles, the cloth can be misted with water, and then gently ironed on the back.
