Palestinian Bedouin Kohl Container Textile Decorated with Mirror, Beads and Tassels - Rita Okrent Collection (AA560)

Palestinian Bedouin Kohl Container Decorated with Mirror, Beads and Tassels.

Circa 1940's to 1950's.

This was vintage when Rita sourced it in the 1980’s.

7 inches tall, 8 inch tall including tassels. 5 inches wide. Weighs 150 grams/ 5 oz.

Needs a little mending to connect the mirror back to the textile. Nice old embroidery / textile. This has been sitting safely in our inventory for a long time. 

A collectible item. Hard to find these authentic vintage kohl containers in the souk these days.


For reference and more information on kohl containers, see Jolanda Bos’s book on kohl containers, Paint it Black.
