This authentic keffiyeh combines traditional craftsmanship with modern style, serving as both a shawl, a partisan scarf and a potent symbol of Palestinian pride.

The culture behind the pattern
The Palestinian keffiyeh and keffiyeh are full of symbolism. The distinctive fishnet pattern represents the connection between Palestinian fishermen and the Mediterranean Sea - a symbol of abundance, vitality and freedom. The thick stripes symbolize the trade routes that historically made Palestine a cultural hub. The zigzag lines reflect the strength of the mountains and the steadfastness of the Palestinian people through decades of occupation and resistance. This is geometric history woven into fabric.
A story about freedom and togetherness
During the Arab Revolt of 1936-1939, the keffiyeh was worn by all classes of society - peasants, Bedouins and city dwellers - as a symbol of unity against British occupation. In the 1960s, the keffiyeh was reborn as an icon of Palestinian liberation, inseparable from Yasser Arafat and global solidarity movements. When you wear a Palestinian keffiyeh, you are part of a world that wants to remember, support and honor the Palestinian people.
