Anut Cairo

Nile Lotus Set of Cocktail Napkin

Add to Wishlist

Anut Cairo takes its name from Nut, the ancient Egyptian goddess of the sky who arches protectively over the earth, and builds an entire collection of table linens and pottery around Egypt’s living craft traditions rather than its postcard imagery. Founded by Goya Gallagher, the house works with artisans across the country – potters in the Fayoum oasis village of Tunis, weavers in Akhmim and Sohag, embroiderers trained at its own Cairo school – turning Egyptian cotton, linen and glazed earthenware into pieces that carry a specific place and a specific pair of hands. An embroidery school for women and an artist residency programme sit at the centre of the house’s mission, so that every napkin or plate also represents a livelihood.

Sold as a set of six, the Nile Lotus Set of Cocktail Napkin carries a flower motif drawn from the Nile Lotus in linen and hand embroidery, echoing the wave of Egyptomania that swept design in the 1920s following centuries of Western fascination with the country. Each napkin is embroidered by hand, so no two sets carry the exact same stitch density.
