Embroidered Towel (Havlu)

Cleveland Museum of Art

The towel is rectangular and made of off-white fabric. The top portion is plain with a few small brown spots near the top left. The bottom portion features two horizontal rows of embroidered designs. Each design consists of a semicircular arrangement of green leaves, blue flowers, and a tan-colored flower or fruit, all outlined in brown thread. A thin brown line separates the two rows of designs and another similar line runs along the bottom of each row. The bottom edge of the towel has a fringe. The background behind the towel is light gray. The title of the image is "Embroidered Towel (Havlu)".
