Once upon a time, Terres d'Orient ... in Bayonne in the Basque Country

To satisfy the inner child, travel is a solution. And on every trip, we like to bring back objects of handicraft, culture and history....

Mouth-blown glassware discovered in the souk of Damascus, which we look at in the depths of winter. Furniture stained with walnut stain that Cédric loves to find, reminiscent of the workshop in the heart of Beirut of this old carpenter who prides himself on perpetuating the work of an old-fashioned cabinetmaker.

Soaps that a long stroll through the citadel of Aleppo enabled us to discover in one of the city's magnificent caravanserais.

Embroidered fabrics, from sewing workshops dedicated to maintaining authentic craftsmanship on garments with updated cuts; and in the process, providing employment for many ladies.

Eaux de Cologne from Santa Maria Novella Di Firenze, created for Catherine de Medici by Dominican monks.

Bock-printed cotton dresses; in ready-to-wear, Monique chooses to offer style rather than fashion.

Egyptian lamps modernized by frosted steel and traditional brassware.

Lukoums or sugar sweets direct from Istanbul; from which also arrive woven cotton tablecloths that will make festive and convivial tables adorned with Barbotine crockery.

The other way to travel is to meet travelers and become the child to whom stories are told. Hamadou tells us about his silver and ebony Touareg jewelry. Isabelle delights us with her Uzbek, Indian and Nepalese fabrics ....Nizar talks about his Persian ceramics.

We invite you to share our world with us, so don't hesitate to come and meet us!
