She married at the age of 12, went on to have eight children, and now enjoys the company of many grandchildren.\n\nBefore moving to Israel, Tali worked in agriculture with her husband.

Among them are elderly grandmothers and younger women alike who have honed their embroidery skills to support their families.\n\nMany traditional artists still hold onto their Ethiopian heritage, agriculture—once their economic lifeline—is now a cherished hobby. Their embroidery reflects their memories of life in Ethiopia and the trials of their journey to their new homeland.\n\nThe art of Ethiopian Jewish embroidery merges traditional values with contemporary life, reflecting the integration of their families into society. Common motifs include images of everyday Ethiopian life, inspired by nature and lifestyle: mothers with babies, women carrying jars, and traditional tea ceremonies. Sacred symbols like Lions, the Queen of Sheba, and birds depict their faith and deep connection to home.\n\n\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Rootsstudio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45996752765147,"sku":null,"price":650.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0907\/7588\/files\/TaliBatbabu-2-1-P.png?v=1725893588","url":"https:\/\/rurbanstudio.com\/products\/talibatbabu-2-1-p","provider":"Roots Studio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
