Traditional folk garments, known as Assyrian Khomala, are used to express cultural values and beliefs, and traditional attire continues to be an important symbol of Assyrian cultural heritage. Our family has been making traditional khomala garments for many years; this has expanded its reach to accommodate the new generation and the use of technology, hence the introduction of e-commerce.
