Product Details for Keffiyeh Mauve Pattern Scarf - Woven in Damascus, Syria

It is said that the distinctive woven check pattern of the keffiyeh originated in an ancient Mesopotamian representation of either fishing nets or ears of grain.  The keffiyeh (also known as a hattah, ghutrah, mashadah or shmagh) was worn in the desert countries of the Arab world for centuries to protect against the sun, wind and sands of the deserts of the world by men and women.

With traditional pattern influence this cotton keffiyeh is predominately pink/mauve  background with pink & deep burgundy flamestitch surrounded with a hot pink fringe and four multi color tassels.
At a generous 48 inches square  you can roll it, twist it and wear it as a neck scarf.  Folded into a triangle you can drape it over a coat, wear it as a shawl or around your waist as a ‘hipster’ scarf. 

It’s urban chic today. From rap stars to movie stars, from LA to Tokyo you can spot this trend.  From hip-hop to collegiate, from casual to edgy evening wear, it’s a fun, fabulous must have fashion accessory.
