Moroccan Lamps: Centuries of traditions A few centuries back, the best way to brighten a home was by using a henna lamp or any other lamp for that matter. A lamp can create a magic and give your home a look that you have desired for so long yet you could never find it. Maybe these lamps are nowhere near the Aladdin's lamp but they sure have the ability to captivate you or your friends. It may not be as bright as the halogen bulbs you installed in your living room but they have a subtle and charismatic appeal that cannot be ignored.

Maybe you have halogen bulbs installed in every room and every room probably looks the same. But do you remember the time when you went out on this wilderness trail and camped under a sky full of stars. The only bright object was the lamp that lit up the fire of romance in your heart. That's the power of a marokkanische lampe.

Moroccan Henna Lamps: Overview Are you ready to purchase a Moroccan henna leather lamp? Before that lets take a look at what is the specialty of the lamp and where does it come from. Firstly, let us understand what henna really is. Henna is a plant, which is used to make a dye. This dye is traditionally extracted from the dry henna leaves and used in decorative art. Henna is applied on hands and feet of mostly women as a decoration in various parts of the world. It is even used for decorating the hand of the bride in marriages in Northern India. In Morocco, henna is used for creating exotic designs for the leather lamps and lanterns. It is also known as Mehndi, in North Africa including Morocco, India, and the Middle East. It has traveled from all these countries to North America and is gaining popularity due to its subtleness, beauty and ability to be used in intricate designs.

With a focus on the material, local and natural raw materials are used almost exclusively. Although Ghalia does not carry a Fair Trade label, the approach is always fair and honest. No exploitation or exploitation - all local proceeds also go directly to the producers.

Crafted using ancient techniques, the Egyptian mood ornament is inspired by traditional flowing arabesque designs. Etched and pierced by hand, the patterns - symbolized to infinity and eternity - cast dancing shadows on the surrounding surfaces[http://ghaliashop.de/]
