Perhaps someone out there might translate for us the text at the center of both sides of this charming embroidered bag, which I believe is Arabic. I of course fell in love with the birds and the deer and the fish, wonderfully stitched in blue and red and green and cream, and with the woven textile itself with green and pink bands at bottom and hand-stitched x's up the sides holding it together. I might guess it's Moroccan (which I believe would make the text Darija, specifically) but am not entirely sure. In any case, a charming one for holding all sorts of things.
13” x 8 3/4” and in good condition, with a bit of blue bleed here and there. All of the stitches are holding tight.
