Key points about Hebron:

  1. Historical Significance: Hebron is one of the oldest cities in the region, with a history dating back to biblical times. It's considered a holy city in Judaism, Islam, and Christianity, primarily due to the Cave of the Patriarchs, believed to be the burial site of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
  2. Demographics: The city is predominantly Palestinian, with a small community of Jewish settlers living in the old city center.
  3. Political Status: Since the 1997 Hebron Protocol, the city has been divided into two sectors: H1 (about 80% of the city), controlled by the Palestinian Authority, and H2 (20%), under Israeli military control.
  4. Economy: Hebron is a significant economic hub, contributing about 33% of the West Bank's GDP. It's known for industries such as glassware, ceramics, limestone quarrying, and shoe manufacturing.
  5. Cultural Heritage: The old city of Hebron was declared a Palestinian World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 2017. It features well-preserved Mamluk-era architecture.
  6. Tensions: The city has been a flashpoint in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, with tensions between Palestinian residents and Jewish settlers, particularly in the H2 area.
  7. Agriculture: The surrounding area is known for its fertile land, particularly for grape cultivation.
  8. Education: Hebron is home to two universities: Hebron University and Palestine Polytechnic University.

Hebron's complex history, religious significance, and current political situation make it a microcosm of the broader Israeli-Palestinian conflict, reflecting many of the challenges and tensions present in the region.

Khalid Al-Natshi

At the heart of our Hebron Glass collection stands Khalid Al Natshi, the current custodian of a legacy that spans over two centuries. As the heir to a family tradition that has been carefully preserved for more than 200 years, Khalid embodies the living history of Hebron's glassmaking art. Together with his brothers and uncles, he manages the day-to-day operations of their ancestral workshop, ensuring that each piece meets the exacting standards set by generations before them. Khalid's passion for his craft goes beyond mere production; he constantly seeks innovative ways to infuse traditional Palestinian motifs and cultural elements into the intricate paintings that adorn their glassware. Under his creative direction, each piece becomes not just a functional item, but a canvas that tells the story of Palestine's rich artistic heritage. Khalid's dedication to his craft and his culture ensures that every piece of Hebron Glass carries within it the soul of Palestine, connecting past and present through the timeless medium of hand-blown glass.
