Cypress Trees Pattern

The Cypress Trees Pattern highlights the Sarw motif, featuring variations from Al Khalil, Yaffa, Ramallah, Gaza, & Bir Al Saba (Left to right on the pattern). The cypress holds significant popularity in southern Palestine, with each region presenting its distinct rendition. Cypress trees exhibit a tall, conical, and symmetrical form, beautifully mirrored in the motifs stitched on Palestinian costumes. Remarkably, these trees have impressive longevity, with some living for centuries. This trait is evident in both the natural landscape and Tatreez, serving as a symbol of Palestinian resilience.
