Najma Palestinian Tatreez Shawl – Black & Multicolor

Najma (نجمة) means star in Arabic, inspired by the repeating star-like Tatreez motifs that illuminate the borders of this shawl.

Set against a deep black base, the embroidery unfolds in a lively procession of turquoise, crimson, fuchsia, green, orange, yellow, purple, and white. Repeating geometric florals and star forms create a colorful frame while leaving the center beautifully understated. Long black fringe completes the piece with movement and a traditional finish.

Najma is bold without feeling heavy—the concentrated embroidery along the edges makes it especially striking when worn open over the shoulders, allowing each embroidered motif to appear like a trail of color against the black.
