Whirling Dervish Cape Black

The Whirling Dervish Cape, called the Khirqa, symbolizes the shedding of worldly attachments before the spiritual dance begins. The cape's removal signifies leaving the ego behind to seek divine oneness.  While their arms are held open, the right hand is to the sky to receive blessings and the left hand to the earth to give to humanity.

Made from a one-of-a-kind vintage Suzani textile, hand embroidered by women in Uzbekistan. Originally these textiles were made for women's dowries.  An embroidery technique that had been passed down from mother to daughter since ancient times.  Each symbol, pattern and color are specifically chosen by its creator to tell a story.
