Jaba Jenin Overview

The Story

The Fertile Plains of Jenin (جنين)

Dotted with the remains of ancient irrigation aqueducts, and renowned for its abundance in fruits and vegetables, the scenic city resides on a hilltop, overlooking vast plains of olive, palm, fig, and citrus orchards. Jenin, which has been a site of human settlement since the Neolithic period, lies along the ancient trade route from Nablus to Haifa.

Jenin has seen a great deal of conflict, as a home for several thousand Palestinian refugees. The Jenin refugee camp was founded in 1953 by Jordan to house displaced Palestinians who fled or were expelled during the 1948 War. In 2001, during the Second Intifada, Israeli military targetted the town, during which the refugee camp was turned into a battleground and was decimated. Witnesses stated unarmed people were shot and denied medical treatment, and as a result died – hauntingly represented in the film documentary “Jenin Jenin” by Mohammad Bakri. And still, Jenin is more than ever a beacon of Palestinian bravery and self-determination, in the face of outstanding crimes against humanity. From its ashes have risen some astounding community projects, primarily the Freedom Theatre based in the heart of the Jenin refugee camp.

PALESTINIAN SOLIDARITY

The Keffiyeh (pronounced “Kufiya” in Palestine) continues to hold deep and symbolic value, and serves as an icon of resistance, struggle and freedom for the Palestinian people. 

The Hirbawi Keffiyeh is handmade using a classic cross-stitching technique honed over generations. The Keffiyeh is traditionally woven on two layers, the “base”, and the “pattern” or “flower” ( وردة) in Arabic. Beyond its unmatched quality, the Keffiyeh maintains its original functionality:

  • Keeping you cool in hot climates under direct sunlight.
  • Effective shielding against dust and fast-blowing winds.
  • Excellent moisture-wicking properties, directing sweat and moisture away from the skin.
 

The Keffiyeh now comes in a variety of colours and patterns that are evolving alongside Palestinian culture. Today, a wide selection of designs are available, based on historic landmarks, and elements of Palestinian culture, as well as the traditional staple Keffiyeh patterns that are known and loved around the world.

The Original Kufiya

Embroidered by Hand

For All Seasons

The beauty of the kufiya is that you can wear it however and wherever you want. If you are interested in ways to wear your kufiya, check out our “how to wear” video.

The kufiya can be worn by anyone in support of the Palestinian cause. In fact, Palestinians love to see people from around the world expressing support through this meaningful fabric. When you choose to wear a Kufiya made in Palestine, it means you are aware of its cultural significance and are benefiting its original community. Whereas, wearing an imitation just for fashion, without any connection to its roots, can be considered cultural appropriation.

Such threads may occur because during production, the ends of the pattern are trimmed by hand by one of our artisans. Small ends of the threads may remain, but these can be easily picked and removed, or will naturally fall off when the kufiya is washed.

Due to high demand, we allow one kufiya per order. However, you are welcome to add non-kufiya items to your order from the Palestinian artisans we support and promote, saving on shipping costs. See more Palestinian brands here.
