Vintage Moroccan Handira Blanket Assia

A stunning handira with sequins and fringing detail

A vintage Moroccan handira blanket featuring a neutral palette of cream and beige stripes in a wool and cotton mix.  Geometric lines of light reflecting sparkling sequins, clusters of sequins and rows of 70s style fringing cover the surface, which was hand-woven by the female relatives of a bride for her wedding day.

The bride wears the handira as a cape tied at the neck on her wedding day.  After the wedding handira are used as bed or sofa covers or as wall art.  This unique piece will add glamour, texture, sparkle, and shimmer to a room.

This vintage Moroccan handira blanket is vintage and handmade and there may be imperfections, but we think this adds to its charm.  See our post on Moroccan wedding blankets for the story behind these unique throws.
