At Arabastta, every piece we offer is more than just a beautiful object — it’s a celebration of noble materials shaped by skilled Moroccan artisans. These raw materials — walnut wood, blown glass, and raphia — are not only natural and durable, but each tells its own story of culture, sustainability, and identity.
🌰 Walnut Wood: Strength with Soul
Used for centuries in Moroccan furniture and tableware, walnut wood is known for its rich brown tones, elegant grain, and long-lasting durability. Artisans work this noble material by hand, transforming it into bowls, trays, and chairs with flowing, organic lines. Every piece is unique — a small sculpture carved with passion and precision.
🫧 Blown Glass: Light and Elegance
Blown glass is one of Morocco’s most poetic crafts. Recycled glass is melted, then shaped by hand using ancient techniques passed down for generations. The result? Delicate yet strong pieces with slight imperfections that make them human. From tea glasses to vases, each item captures the light in its own way — like a piece of Morocco’s soul frozen in time.
🌿 Raphia: The Beauty of Nature
Raphia, a plant fiber harvested by hand, is woven into baskets, bags, lampshades, and more. Lightweight yet strong, it reflects Morocco’s connection to the land and to slow, mindful making. Every weave speaks of patience, tradition, and the artisan’s personal touch.
Why Materials Matter
Using noble materials means embracing sustainability, supporting slow craftsmanship, and valuing authenticity over mass production. At Arabastta, we carefully select each material not just for its beauty, but for its story — and for the people behind it.
