Comments:This scarf has a sticker at the back marked “Made in China”. According to Aisa Martinez, ‘The days (21st century) Emirati men prefer to wear a white head-scarf (ghutra), which can be white embroidered or printed on white. Some men wear it with a head-rope (igal) and the skull-cap underneath. However, the younger generations may also wear the ghutra wrapped in turban-style loosely around their heads.’
