The artisan has been hand-embroidering for the past 27 years, and takes her inspiration for designs from the traditional costumes of Slavonia and Baranja.

Cleaning instructions: As with any artisanal item, the gentler care you give it, the longer it will retain its beauty. If you must clean this article, we suggest careful spot-cleaning.
