Traditional Arafat Keffiyeh from Palestinian Factory in Red on White

This red and white keffiyeh holds a strong connection to both Palestinian and Jordanian heritage.  The red pattern is particularly associated with Jordan, where it is a symbol of Bedouin culture and identity.   Made by a Palestinian factory that has its origins in Jericho before fleeing the 1948 Nakba and reopening in Jordan. It was among the first factories in Palestine in its day and has been making Palestinian kufiyas for decades. The keffiyeh has become an important symbol of Palestinian resistance. In the 30s it was worn, and embraced as an image, by the armed guerillas who prosecuted armed rebellion against the British occupiers of Palestine. Until that period, the keffiyeh had primarily marked its wearer as rural, as a peasant, Fallah, or a Bedouin.
