content: Paula Sabloff, Curator at the University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology, says that this is made from Chinese silk and a Russian cotton lining. It was made for the daughter of Nansalmaa (Associate Director and Chief Curator of the ethnology collection at NMMH) by her grandmother S. Tserenpil, when she (the daughter) was a schoolgirl in the 1990s. Born and raised in Ulaanbaatar, she usually wore Western clothing. But she wore this deel for special occasions (parties, family events, concerts, etc).
