Star & Cypress Heritage Pillow Cover
Handmade in Lebanon by Syrian Artisans | Palestinian-Inspired Embroidery

Bring heritage, symbolism, and timeless craftsmanship into your home with the Star & Cypress Heritage Pillow Cover, handcrafted by the Alsama Studio team in Shatila Refugee Camp, Lebanon. Inspired by traditional Palestinian embroidery, this cotton pillow features star motifs alongside the cypress tree — symbols often representing guidance, resilience, life, and enduring connection to the land.

Created by Syrian women artisans, the design reflects shared cultural traditions carried across generations and borders:
"These are Palestinian designs, but made by Syrian women. We are one people — we and Palestine share one heritage."

Every purchase supports refugee women artisans in earning dignified income through traditional craft, helping provide stability and educational opportunities for their children while preserving embroidery techniques rooted in identity and storytelling.

With its rich rose tones and intricate geometric embroidery, this artisan pillow adds warmth and meaning to sofas, beds, and thoughtfully designed living spaces.
