Sunbula — House of Palestinian Crafts

Sheikh Jarrah, East Jerusalem

What Sunbula — House of Palestinian Crafts is known for

Sunbula sells tatreez, the cross-stitch embroidery whose patterns once identified a wearer's home village across historic Palestine, sourced through fair-trade cooperatives of women artisans rather than produced in-house. The shop has operated from a restored Ottoman-era building on Nablus Road in Sheikh Jarrah since 2010.
