This unusual indigo-colored baknough
is most likely from Libya. It has white cotton dashed lines woven
into the sumptuous blue wool field and a series of white cotton
stripes. Its texture has a denim-like feel to it, possibly because
the wool was spun with a little cotton, and it is lighter in weight
than most baknoughs. It has just a couple of small holes in the
field and measures 87" long by 54" wide. TT128 ~ $2300 |
