Sadu Weaving Experience
Dive into Kuwait’s rich cultural heritage through the art of Sadu weaving, a traditional Bedouin craft that tells stories of the desert through intricate patterns. The craft involves weaving wool into geometric patterns to create textiles like tents, rugs, camel bags, and more. The patterns and colors in Sadu weaving often carry symbolic meanings, representing the Bedouins’ natural environment, social identity, and nomadic lifestyle. Recognized as part of Kuwait’s cultural heritage, Sadu weaving is now listed by UNESCO as an Intangible Cultural Heritage, reflecting its importance in preserving Bedouin traditions.
