the look

a crisp black-and-white bandana in the classic paisley format, printed 100% cotton and signed with a small mef maker's monogram. a wide border of large paisley and floral medallions frames a ring of blossoms and boteh around an open white center, with a small sunburst-paisley medallion at the middle and a scatter of tiny paisley. the corner mark reads 100% cotton with the mef monogram and no rn or country line, so the exact maker and date are open, though the clean high-contrast look reads later rather than early. all four edges are hemmed. black on white is the most graphic and versatile colorway a bandana comes in, and it works with everything.

please note: clean and bright overall, with the light handling a white ground tends to show and no stains or holes.

all bandanas are gently cleaned and pressed. beyond that we let them be, so any fading, softening, or small marks of use stay exactly as they came to us.
