Tatreez Wallet Clutch – Red Geometric

A slim black leather wallet clutch fronted with a bold red geometric tatreez panel, hand-embroidered in the counted cross-stitch that has patterned Palestinian cloth for centuries. Red is the colour most associated with traditional tatreez, historically drawn from natural dyes and stitched into thobes across the villages of Palestine. Inside there is room for cards, cash and a phone, so the piece works as easily on its own for an evening as it does tucked into a larger bag by day. Maie Salameh keeps the pattern faithful to the old motifs while giving it a clean, modern silhouette. Small in the hand, and long in memory.
