our mission

honour

No doubt we sell unique, beautiful objects. But we do more than that. We’re a creative platform shining light on the incredible talent and culture of Turkey.

Our mission is not just to celebrate,
but to honour the cultures which we represent.

We take time to get to know each of our makers, so they have an opportunity to tell their story, their way.

We offer a fair price to both our makers and our buyers, aiming for the challenging fine line between ethical and accessible.

share

We understand competition to be more about lack of confidence, so we choose inspiration over it.
We want to share our expertise with interested people, whether it’s our makers, buyers, or people with similar missions.

No one needs to “know” about art to connect with it. But if you did want to find out more about the works we sell or the cultures we represent, our research is always available to you - just head to our Glossary, our Journal or our Instagram below.

advocate

Sustainability is not just about ecology, it’s also about the speed in which we produce and consume goods, and about our pace of life.

We advocate a slow attitude to life where everyone buys less, but better. This is why everything we offer is handmade - ranging from makers who hand-weave textiles from their own sheep’s wool, to makers who design objects by hand and bring it to life with the help of technology. We make this choice not only because we celebrate imperfections, but also because we find that the more consideration goes into the making process, the longer the lifespan of products, and lesser the impact on our ecology.
