ABOUT THIS PRODUCT
These handcrafted coasters bring the timeless art of Palestinian tatreez embroidery to your table. Each piece features the traditional "Baker's Wife" motif, meticulously hand-embroidered by skilled artisans using techniques passed down through generations. Made with vegan leather and measuring 3.75" square, they transform any gathering into something more meaningful.
Every set tells a story of resilience and craft, created by refugee and low-income women artisans who pour their heritage into each stitch. The intricate threadwork catches the light beautifully, making these coasters as much art as function. Fair Trade certified, this set includes four pieces that honor both tradition and the hands that create it.
More than drink protection, these coasters invite conversation about culture, craft, and conscious choices. They bring warmth to your home while supporting artisans who preserve ancient embroidery traditions with every golden thread.

In the West Bank, a dedicated community of women artisans transforms simple materials into meaningful learning experiences. These talented craftspeople work within a Fair Trade certified cooperative that provides not just employment, but pathways to economic independence and empowerment.
Each piece emerges from hands that understand both traditional crafting techniques and the developmental needs of growing minds. The artisans collaborate with early childhood educators, bringing Montessori principles to life through locally-sourced, upcycled materials. Their work represents hope, skill, and the belief that quality educational tools should nurture both children and the communities that create them.
Every stitch carries intention, every design choice reflects care for the child who will learn through play. This is craftsmanship with purpose, where traditional skills meet modern educational understanding to create something truly meaningful.
