What We Are Buying Today: Desert Designs

If you appreciate antiques and are into the Arabian boho look, check out Desert Designs.
An authentic Saudi furniture shop that has been in business since 1990, it celebrates and promotes the beauty of artisanal work in the Kingdom, drawing on local culture while keeping today’s needs in mind.
Its wares are inspired by local art, heritage and culture. The most interesting part of the way they design furniture and interiors is how Saudi heritage is incorporated in such a way that it enhances a piece of furniture or art object.
The brand is reviving the forgotten arts and encourages artisans to continue their handcrafting skills so people can appreciate one-of-a-kind furniture and high-quality work.
Desert Designs pieces can be custom-made, and are ideal as heirlooms of the future.
Nineteen percent of their products are handmade and some modern technologies are applied. The collection includes old carvings, mosaics, antique doors, Bedouin heritage jewelry and Arabian hand-painted items.
Carpets, tableware, decor and lighting, storage and organizing products are also on offer.
