Yemeni Tunic B


Yemen
#C-136
The western region of Tihama in Yemen is home to many ancient Arab tribes. People from these tribes have intermarried with East Africans for generations. Thus one finds unique garments that resemble African styles more than Arab, such as this example. It is black cotton with fine white cotton and silver metallic braid that gives it a sparkly effect. The edging on the sleeves is Mashru cloth from Syria.

length - 43"
