What is Tatreez?

Tatreez is a form of traditional embroidery practiced across various Middle Eastern and North African cultures, particularly prominent in Palestinian and Jordanian communities. This art form involves intricate stitching using colourful threads to create geometric patterns and motifs.

Caring for Tatreez embroidery

Our tatreez embroidery is stitched with pearl cotton and metallic threads on cotton and cotton blend fabrics. We recommend spot cleaning the embroidery with a solution of water and distilled vinegar OR mild detergent, using a damp cloth with cold water. You may gently rub the embroidery to remove dirt or stains.

Fabric products 

All of our fabric-based products are made with cotton and cotton-blend fabrics and are therefore machine washable on delicate cycle. Lay flat to dry.

Leather

You can care for our leather products the same way you would care for any other leather products. You may clean with a water-based leather cleaner and moisturizer. Use a protective spray to protect the leather surface.

Vegan Leather

For our Vegan Leather products. We recommend spot cleaning the product with a damp cloth with cold water. Use a damp cloth with cold water and do not over soak it.
