Halay handkerchiefs: the essentials
The halay handkerchief, in Turkish halay mendili, is waved by the halaybaşı at the head of the dance line. At the henna night and the wedding, many handkerchiefs carry the couple's names and are kept as a keepsake after the celebration. DUVAM's halay handkerchiefs have coins along the edge and come in packs of 5, all with the same name.
