Meet Arwa Ayman Essawey — Founder of Bouquet

Arwa Ayman Essawey is an architect with a deep appreciation for handmade craftsmanship, particularly wooden pieces that highlight natural textures, materials, and thoughtful design. Her creative approach blends architecture, colour, and material exploration to produce unique decorative items that bring warmth and character into the home.

Driven by a passion for handmade work, Arwa founded Bouquet to celebrate artisanal creation and encourage greater appreciation for handcrafted goods. For her, the joy comes not only from designing but also from knowing that each piece finds a meaningful place in someone’s home.

Bouquet has also expanded to include a range of home décor items made by women artisans who are working to improve their livelihoods and quality of life. Through this, the brand supports skill development, financial independence, and the growth of small-scale craftsmanship.

Each purchase includes thoughtfully designed wooden elements, including a laser-cut logo piece inspired by Egypt’s iconic pyramids—an emblem that also reflects the word “Masr,” the Arabic name for Egypt. These details are paired with papyrus cards, reinforcing the brand’s commitment to authenticity and cultural identity.

Bouquet is a small but growing home business built on the belief that supporting artisans and small producers is essential. Every item reflects a commitment to craftsmanship, community, and the beauty of handmade design.
