For your home, Rustan’s has scoured the souks and boutiques of Marrakech to bring you delightful serviceware and drinkware such as beautifully embellished tea sets, plates, bowls, saucers, and the widely regarded national treasure, tagines. Masterfully crafted rugs and carpets with their intricate Arabian designs, as well as poufs and pillow covers made from luxurious fabrics also await gracious homemakers. The iconic designs of Morocco come fully alive through the colorfully embellished lanterns and lamps with tables and fountains that can bring a wonderful touch to your living room. These blend perfectly well with vibrant cactus plants that add that pop of green.
But it’s not only your spaces that can be livened up with Moroccan finds. Bejeweled shawls, slippers, kaftans and D’jellaba offer comfort and luxury for everyday. Lounge in graceful pieces that leave you feeling like a true Arabian princess.
