At Deerah, we believe that traditional Palestinian hand embroidery Tatreez is a superior form of artistry and a beautiful means of connection to our homeland and heritage.
Not only is it extremely intricate and beautiful, but it is also a movement against fast fashion and unnecessary waste caused by the fashion industry.
Hand embroidered pieces were traditionally made over a span of months or even years and passed down from generation to generation.
To honor all these aspects, we ensure to provide the highest level of quality and produce our pieces ethically.
