Physical Description
Description
Λαχουρί της μέσης, μεγάλο, τετράγωνο, μεταξωτό μαντίλι με κρόσια ολόγυρα. Φοριέται πάντα με τη δεύτερη φορεσιά. Στην περίπτωση όμως που ο γαμπρός δεν έχει την οικονομική άνεση να δωρίσει κλειδωτάρια (κόσμημα μέσης) στη νύφη, φοριέται τότε και με την καλή φορεσιά. Τον οινέρυθρο κάμπο του λαχουριού διακοσμούν μεγάλα ενυφασμένα ανθικά μοτίβα, ενωμένα μεταξύ τους με φυλλοφόρο κλαδί.
