Mandoos

Mandoos collection is inspired by traditional wooden chests decorated with brass nails that were commonly used in the past to hold a person’s most valuable and precious possessions such as documents, jewelry, clothes, money and a bride’s dowry.

This collection is designed to pay homage to this important household item and celebrate its history through modern design elements.

The surface of the boxes depicts an intricate camel leather weave to mimic the patterns found in the traditional craft of Khous weaving and is embellished with metallic studs and leather straps to resemble those used on the traditional Mandoos.
