I believe they are by Hanan. I have one; they are very simple, but I think well-constructed. I handled and tried on a few of them at Dahlal, and some certainly seemed better than others. Some don't have a whole lot of beadwork, although I believe the beads are mostly glass. The beading patterns on mine are really pretty, but I should note that there is no bead trim on the bottom of the skirt. One issue with a lot of them is that she places cutouts in weird places. Mine had a diagonal cutout going right across the crotch (!) so I had to have a backing sewn behind the mesh.
