It is a long swathe of delicate, embroidered, muslin-lined, silk cloth (too long to be worn as is) which is gathered at both ends. Could it have been a table or wall decoration, or would it have perhaps have been worn over a wedding dress, draped one end over each shoulder? Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: it could have been worn or was it a Jewish wedding they have long piece of material in the ceremony I'm not being racist but don't know what its called if you don't want these items take them to a museum i bet they would love to have them |
