Apron woven 1950s, Berovo, Malesevo
Lent by Biljana Kolevski
Biljana's grandmother made this apron in the early 1950s as part of her trousseau in preparation for marriage. The check design with both the warp and weft threads visible is characteristic of aprons in this region. This apron is made using a plain weave with both the warp and the weft threads visible, resulting in a lighter fabric.
Height: 72 cm, width: 75 cm, loom width: 42 cm; Woollen warp, woollen weft.
