Bone Inlaid Collection

Humans have carved animal bone since prehistoric times, but Morocco is one of the few places where the practice has not only survived – but has evolved to become a sophisticated art form. Like their ancient Berber forefathers, the craftsmen in our specialist Marrakech atelier work with camel bone – cutting, shaping, colouring and polishing it to produce pieces of individual beauty and precision. These are then used to create traditional inlaid patterns on items such as tables, cabinets and mirror surrounds.
