| Koohii Story 1 | Brocade is the art of sewing gold on a white towel. |
| Koohii Story 2 | Never heard of this word before encountering it here. So it turns out that the fanciest brocade in the world is actually a towel used by a Turkish monarch. It´s embroidered with gold and cocaine. Yes, cocaine - what you thought it´d be something else? That is some true art right there. I think a great many people would want to own this towel. |
