Palestinian Keffiyeh | Abu Dis Gold

This keffiyeh came into existence through an unexpected moment in the making process, when the wrong coloured thread was used while weaving the iconic Al Quds (Jerusalem) design. What could have been set aside instead became something entirely its own, shaped by human error yet rooted in the same tradition.

It is dedicated to the village of Abu Dis, which borders Jerusalem, a place deeply connected to the spiritual and historical fabric of Palestine. In this way, the keffiyeh holds both proximity and connection, reflecting the closeness of land, people, and story.

Sourced from Al-Khalil (Hebron), West Bank, Palestine, where one of two remaining keffiyeh factories in the region continues to produce authentic Palestinian keffiyehs, each piece supports the continuation of a craft that has endured despite growing pressure from imitation and mass production.

Given their handmade nature, slight variations in weave, tassels, and pattern are to be expected, each one carrying the mark of the hands and process behind its making.
