For the 2nd year in a row (or maybe 3rd), I had the pleasure of attending Kuwait International Exhibition on Islamic Arts and its Application on Metal Crafts. The exhibition was held The Grand Mosque's exhibition area in Kuwait City. I wanted to get some ideas and inspiration for decorating my home. The event assembled 16 artisans, from various islamic countries like Algeria, Afghanistan, Egypt, Iran, Lebanon, Morocco, Turkey, and more. I found myself more intrigued into exploring the art of calligraphy than metal crafts. If I had the time I would have loved to join the arabic calligraphy workshops that were held during the event. Here's a quick look at what caught my attention.
Everyone who knows me, knows that I have a soft spot for bag charms. They're fun, cute, and add a dose of irresistible character to your plain handbag. So when I got the news about Miu Miu paying tribute to the Middle Eastern culture by presenting an exclusive playful yet multifunctional accessories in luxurious precious skin, I got excited intrigued. The round-shaped charms has the Arabic alphabet, each piece presenting a letter design with metallic hues and vibrant colors. They're cute, nothing groundbreaking. I'm not sure if these bags charms would step up my bag charms game, but I guess it depends on their price tag and how "exclusively" exclusive they are. Maybe they'll grow on me? I don't know... What do you think? The charms should be available exclusively in Miu Miu Boutiques throughout our region.
