Palestinian Keffiyeh | Arafat Black and White

This keffiyeh brings together the traditional black and white pattern, woven into a design that feels both strong and instantly recognisable. The contrast between black and white sits with clarity, creating a palette that has become one of the most enduring expressions of the keffiyeh.

Commonly known as the Arafat keffiyeh, this pattern became widely recognised through Yasser Arafat, who wore it as a consistent expression of Palestinian identity. Over time, it has come to represent a shared symbol of presence, resistance, and belonging.

Produced in Al-Khalil (Hebron), where one of two remaining keffiyeh factories in the region, each piece reflects how this design continues to evolve while remaining instantly recognisable.

Each piece supports the continuation of a craft that has endured despite growing pressure from imitation and mass production.

Given its handmade nature, slight variations in weave, tassels, and finishing may occur. These are part of its character, each keffiyeh carrying the mark of the hands and heritage behind it.
