A very wide Assiut Egyptian cotton mesh shawl that we have over dyed in a sumptuous celadon green. The woven geometric design is unusually heavy and intricate.
Tulle-bi-telli, also known as Assuit or 'Assiut was all the rage during the course of when Orientalism was a popular fashion , especially flappers during the Art Deco period .
The shawl has some early repairs.
