Najma Reversed Pendant Light

For Morocco to your doorstep.

We've partnered up with the artisans from Dounia Home to create breathtaking Moroccan lights. It began with a vision to empower Moroccan Artisans through a lifestyle brand that believes in fair wages, fair working hours and opportunities for growth.  Founder and designer, Dounia Tamri-Loeper, draws inspiration from the artisan community in the Moroccan town where she grew up.

She works closely with master metal workers to create each unique lighting and furniture piece. Using locally sourced materials and traditional techniques, a team of passionate artisans carefully handcraft each piece.

Empowerment

Dounia Home’s goal is to empower the artisans they work with by paying 30% higher wages and offering them reasonable work hours so they can manage their time efficiently. They also offer their craftsmen an opportunity to grow and learn new skills by always pushing the limits of the trade.

Each item sold by Department of Artisans employs an equal profit-sharing model.

Simply put, we make as much as our artisans do. The average split for each product is 40% artisan contribution, 40% DOA contribution, 20% importing + shipping fees. This means, our profits are the same as our artisans and we don't mark-up our prices like traditional retailers.

The 40% artisan contribution goes towards the cost of materials, the maker, and the project manager. The 40% DOA contribution goes towards marketing + operating expenses, and community initiatives. The 20% importing + shipping fees is paid out to each country during the exporting/importing process.

All shipments are securely packaged for safe and prompt delivery. We are happy to offer shipping worldwide. Please allow 1-2 business days for order processing.
