The article highlights Anut, a Cairo-based home goods brand named after the ancient Egyptian goddess Nut. Co-founded by Goya Gallagher and Cruz Maria Wyndham, the brand celebrates Egyptian crafts, offering unique items like linen tablecloths and animal-shaped candles. Anut is committed to empowering local artisans, particularly women, by providing training and even assisting with micro loans. The recent launch included a costume party at the Egyptian Museum, honoring ancient rituals and Gallagher's journey in Egypt since the early 1990s.
"We want to help our artisans go to the next level if that's what they want, adding that the team will even help negotiate micro loans for their employees so that they can build their own businesses."
"We're collaborating with the poet and photographer Mahmoud Khattab on a project in the Fayoum Oasis with some of the ceramists we work with, and partnering with the designer Omar Chakil on a series of vessels carved from Egyptian alabaster."
