Brass · Copper · Enamel
Objects that
have already
lived.
A small, closely-held collection of Moroccan and North African antiques — hand-raised, chased and engraved, carried out of the houses and workshops where they spent the last century.
The collection in four chapters
Four rooms
of the same house
The Brass Menagerie
Birds and beasts cast in brass — the long-necked waders and quiet horses that stood on Moroccan sideboards for half a century.
IIThe Tea Ritual
Vessels made for pouring, offering and welcome. Chased and engraved by hand for the ceremony that opens every Moroccan door.
IIILight & Flame
Oil lamps from the years before the switch on the wall — copper, brass, enamel and honeyed glass.
IVHearth & Desk
The working objects: a grinder that still turns, a brass hand that has held a century of paper.
The house
An arch, a palm,
a star and a floor
Our crest is a small inventory of Morocco. The keyhole arch that frames every doorway from Fez to Essaouira. The palm that marks water. The eight-pointed khatim, the seal, the same star struck into the centre of the tray in this collection. And beneath them the zellige floor, laid tile by tile, which is where Moroccan geometry begins and ends.
We put it on everything we sell because it is a promise about the kind of object we are willing to put our name to.
Reserve the piece
Because every object is unique, adding it holds it for you while you decide. Nothing is charged at this point.
We quote the crossing
Shipping and insurance are quoted for your address by return — brass is heavy and we would rather be accurate than optimistic.
It travels
Double-boxed and tracked, with its condition report and a note on how to care for it.
Eleven pieces. Then they are gone.
Take one home
When a piece sells it is not restocked. That is the whole proposition, and the only honest one for objects like these.
