These magical textiles are traditionally worn as ceremonial capes at the festival of Imilchil, the Berber Bride Festival, where the tribes of the Atlas Mountains gather to find a marriage partner. Each Handira is hand-made, one-of-a-kind, woven with ivory wool & white cotton and artistically embellished with silver sequins. Moroccan wedding blankets are a versatile exotic home accessory: transform a bed, wall, dressing table, couch, chair or ottoman with a glamorous bohemian Handira.
