Majdalawi Weaving
Woven in Exile, Embroidered on Homeland
This piece carries a story of displacement, resilience, and an enduring connection to Palestine.
Majdalawi weaving is a traditional Palestinian textile craft, historically associated with the town of Majdal. Following the forced displacement of Palestinians from their homes, the craft continued in exile, including in Upper Egypt, where Palestinian weavers preserved the knowledge and techniques of their homeland.
This textile was woven in Upper Egypt, carrying forward a tradition that survived, It was then brought home to Palestine, where it was hand-embroidered on the land from which its owners were forced to leave and one day will return to.
This is more than a textile. It is a piece of living heritage, woven in exile, returned to homeland, and hand-embroidered on ancestral land.
They are extremely limited and available exclusively through Hubb & Huriya.
We are grateful once again to have partnered with the incredible Bisan (@thobna) from Ramallah, Palestine. Bisan works alongside local women in the region, who hand-embroider each scarf with exceptional care and skill.
This scarf carries symbol of the Iris flower native to Palestine, uniquely designed by Bisan herself. The flower is found in the hills of Palestine. Blooming under occupation, resilient, beautiful, full of History and determined.
