Roya is, at its heart, a love story—between Kim and Mohamed, and between two worlds. When Kim, from the Netherlands, first traveled to Egypt with Mohamed, they fell for the country’s vibrant spirit, but also for the artisans whose hands shape its heritage. Roya, meaning “vision” in Arabic, was born from this shared journey: a dream to bring Egypt’s timeless craft to a wider world. Every piece—whether an alabaster candleholder, Fayoum pottery, or woven palm basket—is made in close partnership with local artisans, using techniques passed down through generations. Roya isn’t just about beautiful objects; it’s about honoring tradition, supporting fair, ethical craftsmanship, and sharing the warmth of Egyptian artistry in every home. With Roya, you join a story of connection, creativity, and the enduring magic that happens when love inspires something truly lasting.
