A keychain with a cologne and cute hand embroidery. There are three types to choose from. ◆ History of Palestinian hand embroidery Due to its deep history, Palestinian embroidery has been designated as a World Intangible Cultural Heritage since 2021, the same as Japanese food. The embroidery patterns and techniques that have been passed down from mother to daughter to the next generation are so old that they can be traced back to BC. The traditional costumes of total embroidery are beautiful in all regions and are coveted by embroidery lovers and ethnic lovers, but many of them are no longer everyday wear due to war and refugees from their homes, but are worn on special occasions. ◆ About the creator "Holy Land Handicrafts Cooperatives Society" Established to protect local traditional crafts and artisans from the global economy, it is the oldest member of the World Fair Trade Federation (WFTO) in the Middle East. With a small workshop and an office that serves as a window to overseas, we guarantee the livelihoods of about 2,000 people.

I don't think there are many people who are familiar with Palestine and what kind of life and problems they have. I, Takahashi, the representative of the chopsticks, met the local people through a homestay. Until then, I had a strong image of conflict, and I couldn't imagine life at all.

The scenery and food are full of history, and the locals are proud of the local culture. At the end of the 19th century, in this area, where various religions coexisted side by side, there was a movement to create a "country made up of only one ethnic group". Coming from the West, Palestine came under occupation, and life continued even though freedom was not available. I visited such a place and wanted to live in a world where people, culture, and nature are valued as a matter of course, and I wanted to work with these people by multiplication, so I launched Kakekeke.
