Background:
This Linen shawl is hand-woven in the heart of the beautiful Siwa Oasis by talented Egyptian craftswomen. Siwa has a unique cultural heritage that contributes to Egypt’s rich and diverse identity. The local women create these beautiful shawls using the handloom weaving craft, influenced by the tribal culture of Siwa. This type of craft-making was inherited from the Pharaohs and lives on today.
Product description:
The shawl is lined with embroidery fashioned in small precise cross-stitching. It has lovely delicate fringes extending at its ends. This lovely hand-woven patterned shawl comes in one size 1m * 1.5m (39” * 59”).
Uses:
It can be worn as a shawl, wrap, cover-up, or even an oriental-style hip wrap for dancing. It’s not just limited to clothing. It can also serve as a lovely piece of decor, adding a warm, ethnic accent to any space. This shawl looks great over a table or chair, or even draped across a wall, showcasing the talent of local Egyptian craftswomen.
