Apron from Kavakli. The apron, also known as pistirka, was woven on the loom in various shades, with red being the most common color. For older women, the aprons were decorated with repeating patterns arranged in horizontal bands, while for younger women, they were usually red and featured vertical motifs in the center, either woven or embroidered.
