As the sun set over the Marrakech medina, casting long, ethereal shadows and bathing the bustling market in hues of gold and auburn, our journey began. We were on a quest to unearth the treasures of the Sahara Collection, an assemblage of tribal-influenced homewares, featuring lighting, rugs, and an assortment of eclectic items that encapsulate the very essence of diverse cultures and traditions.
The Sahara Collection is more than merely a range of homewares; it is a narrative of stories, a testament to artisans' skill, and an invitation to immerse oneself in a realm of aesthetic delight and cultural richness. The collection is an ode to the raw beauty and intricate craftsmanship found in the tribal communities of Morocco and beyond, a tribute to the timeless artistry that they have been perfecting for centuries.

As we navigated the alleyways of Marrakech, the rhythmic clamor of metalworkers, the intoxicating scent of spices, and the vibrant tapestry of colours that adorned every corner, each piece of our Sahara collection is a reflection of the places it originated, a tangible piece of history, and a conduit for the spirit of the tribal communities they represent.Â
The lighting fixtures are a celebration of light, shape, and texture. Each pendant is meticulously handcrafted, using traditional techniques passed down through generations. The designs are both contemporary and tribal, marrying modern aesthetics with traditional methods. The result is an illuminating array of fixtures that not only bring light into a space but also imbue it with warmth, character, and a hint of the exotic.
The rugs in the Sahara Collection are a testament to the tribal communities' resilient spirit and exceptional craftsmanship. Handwoven from high-quality materials, these rugs are more than functional pieces; they are artworks that tell tales of tradition and time. The patterns are intricate, the colours are rich and earthy, and each rug is unique â bearing the mark of the artisan who lovingly crafted it.
Beyond lighting and rugs, the Sahara Collection from Morocco offers an intriguing array of eclectic items, each echoing the tribal influence that defines the collection. From intricately carved wooden furniture to hand-painted ceramics, from tamegroute ceramics to lush, textured cushions, every piece presents its own unique allure.Â
Exploring the Sahara Collection is akin to a journey around the world, a voyage through time, and an exploration of diverse cultures and traditions. It is a tribute to the skilled artisans who pour their heart, soul, and talent into each piece, preserving their tribe's heritage while creating homewares that add beauty and meaning to homes across the globe.
The Sahara Collection is more than a collection; it is a celebration of global craftsmanship, an exploration of tribal artistry, and a tribute to the eclectic beauty found in every corner of our world. It is a journey that begins in the bustling markets of Marrakech and extends to the farthest reaches of Morocco, bringing back treasures that tell tales of tradition, resilience, and artistry.
We invite you to embark on this journey, to explore the Sahara Collection, to discover the global homewares with a tribal influence. Allow the collection to transport you to a world of cultural richness and aesthetic delight, and let your home become a canvas for these extraordinary tales of tradition and artistry.
As we proudly unveil our new collection, our thoughts and condolences are with the people of Morocco, particularly those in Marrakech and the breathtaking Atlas Mountains. Having travelled that road to the mountains, which leads us to the talented artisans who serve as a constant source of inspiration, we are grateful to learn that they and their families have come through the recent earthquake unharmed. Our hearts go out to all those affected by this devastating event, and we sincerely hope for their speedy physical and emotional recovery. May they find solace, strength, and restored well-being in the days ahead.
