The Layali Dimashq Clutch is handcrafted using 100% Syrian brocade, woven in the heart of Damascus by skilled artisans who preserve generations of textile artistry. The name means "Damascus Nights" in Arabic, evoking the beauty, mystery, and timeless charm of evenings in the ancient city.
This piece features a bluish-grey base threaded with soft gold, creating a luminous, dreamlike effect. Woven into the design are the ʿāshiq and maʿshūq birds- symbolic lovers first introduced in brocade patterns made for Queen Elizabeth I. Their presence adds a layer of romance and legacy to this already enchanting fabric.
The Layali Dimashq Clutch is a tribute to storytelling through textile, carrying the memory of a city known for its beauty, resilience, and unmatched craftsmanship.
