Teaching Coptic class; need pix of your clavi reconstruction
#61
Dan,

Any chance of a close up of this tunic and the clavii?

From the other thread , the clavii were 120 year old Berber tent edging- so no problems finding some of that in my local shop....... :roll:

Will post pics of my new tunic later this week- I'm a very slow sewer (as in sewing rather than in a large drain.... :wink: )

Cheers

Just got one of Cheyenne/ Claire's linen tunics- madder dyed, authentic weave- love it! Seriously recommended.

Cheers

First photo of my new Late Roman tunic. Tapestry woven clavii from an old trim that I found (I've always liked griffins- though perhaps this would date it a little later?) and orbiculi taken from a church altarpiece fragment that I found on ebay.
