Description
This stamp highlights the “Silk Jebba”, the centerpiece of traditional Tunisian male costume. The illustration shows a man wearing this loose cream-colored tunic, worn over a fine shirt and completed with the red chechia, emblem of national elegance. The background decoration, representing a monumental studded door, reinforces the clothing's anchoring in the urban heritage of the medinas. This visual celebrates ancestral know-how of weaving and embroidery which remains, even today, the symbol of dignity and refinement during religious ceremonies and family celebrations in Tunisia.
