Physical Description

A Syrian woman's black sateen skirt constructed of five panels with the top edge turned back to enclose elastic at the waist.. There are panels of geometric cross stitch in reds, rusts, pinks, lavenders, yellow, etc. There are two sequins on left side. One panel is unembroidered - probably the front, as an apron would be worn over this.
