Vintage Moroccan Wedding Blanket, Berber Handira with Original Cape Ties
Located in Dallas, TX
21545 Distressed Vintage Moroccan Wedding Blanket, Berber Handira with Original Cape Ties 03'09 x 05'05. This handwoven wool vintage Moroccan Wedding Blanket also known as a Berber Tamizart Handira features rows of fluffy fringe embellished with paillette sequins. The underside of this vintage Handira blanket displays Kilim bands on a black backdrop with yellow and red accent colors. These bands are linked back to the flat-weave kilims of the region. This particular Moroccan Handira still has the two ties attached- it was worn by the bride as a cape. The ties on the Handira Tamizart secure it around the bride's shoulders for warmth during the ride to her new home. Generally woven by the bride's family members, these Moroccan Handiras are symbolic textiles infused with the Baraka to bestow blessings. Moroccan wedding blankets are believed to keep away evil spirits, bring good luck to the new married couple, and bequeath fertility.

19th Century Plains Crow Native American Beaded Hide Blanket Strip
Located in Denver, CO
This antique 19th-century Crow beaded blanket strip is a stunning example of Plains Indian craftsmanship. Constructed from native tanned hide and adorned with glass trade beads and red stroud cloth (trade cloth), this piece features intricate beadwork in light blue, yellow, red, dark blue, and white beads arranged in geometric and bar designs. The strip is divided into four rectangular segments, with each segment separated by three round rosettes. Each rosette is beautifully beaded in pink, light blue, yellow, dark blue, and white beads, with hide suspensions in the center, adding both texture and movement to this decorative piece.
The Crow people (Apsáalooke), meaning "Children of the Large Beaked Bird," are part of the Northern Plains Indian culture group. Historically, they lived in areas of present-day Montana, Wyoming, and South Dakota. The Great Plains region spans from southern Canada to the southern United States, covering modern states like Montana, Wyoming, North Dakota, South Dakota, Kansas, Nebraska, Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico, and Colorado.

Showing heavily decorated in the bottom with silver nickel hands amulets for the Evil Eye protection and early textiles (wool and silk) and tassels hanging down.
Face coverings were worn for centuries by the women of various nomadic tribal groups of North Africa and the Middle East.
In the western desert of Egypt, Berber women living in Bedouin societies sometimes wear masks or veils called niqab. The veils serve multiple functions, including protecting the women’s face from sun damage, filtering dust from the air, displaying adornment, and demonstrating wealth or status.
The niqab worn by Bedouin women on special occasions are sometimes elaborately decorated with coins and beads, like this one.
Such masks are not for everyday use; they would be too hot and heavy. They are worn during special events, such as weddings and feasts.
Face veil: 12" W x 19" L,
circa 1915-1930.
