Very lovely veil. These just cannot be found for sale anymore, at least online. The coral beads are especially nice. Where did you find this? Were you in Jordan recently?
Beautiful and rare. Congratulations!
I like this veil because it is so neatly arranged and balanced. It is not my most precious veil though. I will post some of my other veils soon. I bought this particular veil in Jordan. You are absolutely right, veils - same as hats and head decorations - from the Levant are almost impossible to buy. They are hardly being worn nowadays and since they were heavy used, did not live long enough to reach us ... unfortunately. With kind regards. Peter
