Product: These cushion covers are unique pieces, made from reclaimed Palestinian thoubs (dresses). The recovered embroidery was transformed into cushions by a Palestinian women's cooperative in Jerusalem and purchased during a recent trip to the region.

Craft: This traditional craft, known as tatreez, is Palestine's living heritage. Passed down from mother to daughter, this unique skill goes beyond simply adorning clothes and accessories; it tells of the richness of a culture, the strength of a people seeking to preserve its identity. These embroideries are not simple motifs, but stories in thread, imbued with culture, heritage and resilience in the face of adversity. A strong symbol of Palestinian identity, the tatreez adorns the homes of Palestinian families in the West Bank, Gaza, Israel and even in the diaspora, bearing witness to a tradition that defies borders and the tests of time.

It is so deeply rooted in the culture that, in 2021, "The art of embroidery in Palestine, its practices, skills, knowledge and rituals" were inscribed on UNESCO's list of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.

Tirazain is a digital archive and library dedicated to documenting and preserving Palestinian embroidery.
