This early C1800s boçha was made to be used as a wrapping or present cover at ceremonies. Possibly from the Nišantęs workshop, Istanbul.
The very fine pale apple green silk ground is embroidered with very floral motifs which form roundels, silk embroidered in very fine chain stitch.
Backed more recently in a cotton muslin. Some historic repairs and faint watermarking to silk ground.
