Jaffra is a Palestinian arts project that embodies the spirit of resilience and challenge through handcrafted pieces that reflect stories of love, life and resistance. Named after two extraordinary Palestinian women, both bearing the name of Jaffra, our project is rooted in their remarkable journey. The first defied a harsh marriage in search of safety, while the second found love amidst the trials of refugee life, only to face the harsh realities of war. Their struggles with violence and colonialism inspired our brand.

In every piece of artwork, we weave a narrative of struggle and victory, offering a tangible reflection of Palestinian endurance and hope. Our mission is to showcase unique creations that echo the stories of Palestinians, especially women, carrying message of hope and perseverance in a world rife with injustice and adversity.

All of the wallets are assembled in Palestine, and the women's wallets are painted by Palestinian women in Hebron/Al Khalil.
