Samarkand Design

I am often asked where the name Samarkand came from. Many people have never heard of this great city in Uzbekistan, full of magisterial mosques and stunning architecture. It was once at the centre of the Silk Roads - a point between East and West. I felt it conjured up what I love best about what we do - bringing the artistry and craftsmanship from the East to adorn our homes and enrich our lives. And we do it in partnership with the many talented artisans we work with.
Sometimes I think why did I choose such a hard word to remember or even pronounce properly but I still love what it represents.
What do you think of it?

We had an amazing time at .curatedstore, meeting awesome people and brands, but the highlight was catching up with the fabulous Tamara while we got to play shop for a couple of days. Vase and basket from and seat pads from us.

So much to love .curatedstore . This curation is ending after tomorrow so try and come before it’s all change for May.
