At the intersection of tradition and innovation lies the Khimar Collection of Jeweled Furniture, a testament to the rich heritage of Islamic culture. Through masterful craftsmanship and innovative design, this collection breathes new life into the endangered ancient Islamic craft of Intarsia, narrating the tales of over 40 skilled artisans through an array of hand-carving techniques and exquisite mother of pearl inlays. Drawing inspiration from the profound symbolism of the Khimar—a layered textile symbolizing freedom and pride for Muslim women—each piece in the collection becomes a fluid canvas for cultural celebration and empowerment. Each piece in the collection is framed with echoes of the historical ‘Hawdage’ practice—where affluent women traditionally disassembled and ‘flat-packed’ their valuables in luxurious textiles for Silk Road journeys—this collection champions environmental sustainability and cultural preservation amid global cultural shifts. Through a fusion of traditional motifs and innovative engineering systems, these creations not only honor tradition but propel it into the modern era.
