The story
This traditional Berber wedding blanket is woven by the parents of the bride. This takes several weeks for the processing of hundreds of sequins. After the wedding ceremony the bride wears the Handira over her shoulders. This makes a soft tinkling sound.
The Handira gives her protection, comfort, happiness and fertility during her marriage.
