White Rumi thobe
A white Rumi thobe (dress) from the Ramallah area made of handmade natural linen fabric and embroidered with the Fallahi (peasant) cross stitch made with predominately red silk threads. The chest panel of the thobe is embroidered with geometric, plant, and animal shapes, among them the rooster motif as seen in the middle. This rooster motif carries religious significance for Christians. The sleeves bear several plant stitch patterns to their ends, with the rooster motif in the middle.
