Han'eri (半襟, はんえり) is a decorative piece of cloth worn over a juban collar to add style or color to an outfit. About 16.5cm (6") wide by 110cm (43") long. Also added to protect the juban collar, as it's easily removable for washing.
Often embroidered with flower motifs or geometrics. Can be made of polyester, crepe, satin, linen, leno weave gauze, or Shioze silk.
If embroidered, the embroidered section is usually about 25cm (9.5") long. It's located about 20cm up from the end of the fabric. There are some unusual haneri where the design embroidered on each side is different (see blue/purple haneri below).
