Qatr al-Nada Black Poncho Top with Green Hand Embroidery

Meet Qatr al-Nada, named after a princess of the sultans' era.

Qatr al-Nada, "the dewdrop", was a princess of the Tulunid sultans of Egypt, remembered for one of the most splendid weddings in Arab history. This top carries her grace into everyday wear.

A relaxed, free-size poncho-style top in soft black Roxana fabric with a truly unique cut: open sides and embroidered side panels that move as you walk. A wide chest panel of hand-stitched tatreez in olive and leaf-green stars, vines and medallions frames the neckline. Layer it over trousers, a skirt or a dress.

Handmade by Palestinian refugee women in Jordan. Pair it with the matching Zaytouna thobe, stitched in the same green tatreez, for a coordinated look.
