Inspired by the vertical lines of Cairo’s minarets, the ZellijScarf brings architectural balance into a wearable piece.
Long running stitches fall like the shaft of a minaret, finished with hand-embroidered eight-pointed stars, a timeless symbol from Islamic geometric design. The subtle color shifts in the stitching add movement while keeping the design clean and structured.
Made from wool gabardine, the scarf keeps its shape while staying soft and easy to drape. Whether worn loosely over the shoulders or wrapped neatly, Mihwar feels refined, confident, and quietly strong.
Part of the RIWAQ Ramadan Buttonup, a collection inspired by Cairo’s historic minaret architecture.
