Green Palestinian Tatreez Embroidered Velvet Thobe

Description

This is a beautiful example of a traditional Palestinian dress, known as a thobe. It is crafted from a deep green velvet fabric, providing a rich and luxurious texture. The garment is extensively adorned with intricate “tatreez” embroidery, a traditional Palestinian cross-stitch art form.
The embroidery features a vibrant and complex pattern, primarily in shades of pink, orange, and gold. The floral and geometric motifs are meticulously stitched along the bodice, sleeves, and down the length of the dress, creating a stunning visual effect. A matching embroidered belt cinches the waist, highlighting the silhouette. The central panel of the dress remains unadorned, allowing the deep green velvet to provide a striking contrast to the elaborate embroidery that frames it. The overall design showcases the rich cultural heritage and skilled craftsmanship of Palestinian tatreez embroidery.
