The Making of Sumud Stories™ Palestinian Leather Wallets

At Sumud Stories each product created is a celebration of collaboration, craftsmanship, and resilience. Our journey starts in Palestine, a land known for its deep historical roots and a culture rich with diverse artisanal practices. Here, we work closely with local artisans, combining their traditional techniques with innovative designs to craft pieces that narrate the rich artisanal industry of Palestine and its people.
“Sumud” means steadfastness in Arabic, reflecting our commitment to endure and thrive despite challenges. This ethos is woven into every aspect of our work, guiding our artisans as they produce items that are not only culturally significant but also of the highest quality.
The Masari Leather Wallet, handmade in Palestine from 100% full grain leather, is a symphony of tradition and modernity, blending the richness of heritage with contemporary needs.
Dive deep through the roots of Palestine into the production that survived since the times of the Canaanites, leather production has been thriving over the different centuries, especially through the timeless craftsmanship of Hebron. The leather production process in Hebron has traditionally involved manual techniques, including tanning, dyeing, and crafting by hand. Traditional tanneries in Hebron use natural materials like oak bark and sumac in the tanning process, which gives the leather its distinctive quality and durability.
