Do you know the meaning behind these beautiful Palestinian embroideries?
PalStitch™️ Gaza Tote Bags feature tatreez, a centuries-old cross-stitch art rich in cultural significance. More than decoration, tatreez symbolizes identity, resilience, and storytelling, with motifs reflecting the deep connection between Palestinians and their land.
This design is inspired by amulet patterns once embroidered around the pockets of dresses from Gaza villages like Majdal and Asqalan, symbolizing protection and care. It also honors Gaza’s agricultural heritage, with elements inspired by the region’s iconic date fruit.
Crafted with love, this tote also makes the perfect companion for storing your Hirbawi kufiya.
By incorporating these meaningful motifs, we preserve heritage, support local artisans, and share Palestinian history with the world.
