Physical Description
Description
Τσίπα, τριγωνικό μαντίλι από μπλε συνθετικό ύφασμα. Πρόκειται για μαντίλι νεότερου τύπου, που αντικατέστησε τον παλιότερο μετσοβίτικο κεφαλόδεσμο με τα περούκλια. Στα δύο σκέλη του φέρει επίρραπτη διακόσμηση με μεταξωτή μονόχρωμη (καφέ) δαντέλα με τη βελόνα του ραψίματος, εξαιρετικής τεχνικής. Η τσίπα δένεται σφιχτά πίσω στο λαιμό και οι άκρες της καθώς έρχονται μπροστά, δένονται ψηλά πάνω στο μέτωπο.
