Aid to Artisans: Egyptian Occasional Furniture Collection

[gallery link="file"]

Designed by: Rhea Alexander, Founder of DIGS

The goal was to offer retailers and wholesalers interested in importing from Egypt a cross-section or sense of the capacity and range these talented artisans have.

My inspiration was  the nexus between old and new. During this historical time of the Arab Spring, how can we take the traditional iconic patterns and wood turnings then fuse them with a contemporary forms and materials to imply the transition or change occurring around us. The carvings inspired by the henna tattoos of traditional Muslim Women, the inlay from mosaic patterns and the ancient Egyptian architectural proportions balanced with contemporary finishes, needs and dimensions.

Available this Spring  through Aid to Artisans

Confessions of an Overworked Mom Giveaway

Confessions of an Overworked MOM is giving away our Black Felt Bag!

Ellen says, "This bag is the perfect fashion accessory for the college student heading off to school this fall. It's room enough for a laptop or a note book and book with a few pens and pencils as well. The classic black means that it will be an easy accessory to match with any outfit whether a casual pair of jeans or a more dressy outfit for an interview or internship position. The bag is also available in mauve and grey. I just love the rich, soft feel of the wool felt.  It's very well made and is holding up quite well to constant use."

Click here to find out how to enter the giveaway!  Good luck!
