Come enjoy an unusual collection of OYA’s; gorgeous Turkish scarves! These scarves are made by Turkish women (amazing crochet and tatting work!), the technique is handed down from mother to daughter. In order to preserve this incredible textile work, I’ve been collecting for over 20 years; buying directly

from the women in the villages. Special exhibition of beaded OYAS, from Nikki’s Collection. UNUSUAL SALE! GREAT PRICES! Come and enjoy!
