Keffiyeh were originally designed and woven in the Levant, primarily in Palestine. It was a practical scarf for all seasons - against sand, dust, sun in summer and cold winters (yes, such topographies, especially near large water ways get very cold at night! Every few year it can snow as well.). My first time living in Gaza, I figured it was how all winter - big mistake. Decorative items were usually in blankets and tapestries or kilim (2 sided). They are hand made and very costly asits a slow and dying art form. Kuffiyahs though became sdopted as a fashion item with little knowledge. In Palestine, perhaps around 40-50 years ago, the colors id'd the wearer: green/white for far right muslims (IJ and Hamas), red/white for communist/socialists (PFLP, DFLP, FFLP-GC) and black/white for secular and Christians. Other colors are for fashion. The only handmade ones still produced, and I have one, is at a small shop in Hebron, south of Bethlehem- all others from anywhere else (China, India) are machine made.

LOVARZIDesert Shemagh Scarf - Stylish & Versatile Fashion Scarf for Men & Women of All Ages

Q: Why don't you use colorfast dye that won't bleed onto skin or other clothing? After careful washing and over three dozen rinses, color still bleeds.

Which colour you bought ? Can you send us images via Amazon messages so that we can look into this. This should not happen at all. Sorry for any inconvenience.

Q: Is it possible to exchange for another color? The one I ordered looks nothing like the listing.

I have had no problems dealing with this company on exchanges. I hope you will find it the same for you.

Q: There is no add to the cart button ?

Sorry, you need to contact Amazon customer care if you are facing any problems with buying this product. As far as we can see the button is there to add this product to your shopping basket. But Amazon does time to time decide is to activate this button or not depending on location and other things. Best to get in touch with amazon customer care and have them check this out for you. Thanks.
