Mauritania
Mauritania unfolds where the sands meet the sea - a place of quiet dignity, where craft rises from resilience. Along caravan routes once travelled by salt traders, Tuareg silversmiths still shape jewellery marked by mysticism and minimalist beauty. In the markets of Nouakchott, leather is hand-tooled, camel hair woven, and copper tapped into ceremonial vessels.
The desert gives little, but what is made here is made with precision, reverence, and patience. In Mauritania, craft is not flourish - it is function infused with grace, shaped by survival and softened by ancestral pride.
'Of dunes that drift like golden lore,
And silence sung on the desert floor.
A nomad’s heart in a sunlit trance,
Mauritania guards an ancient dance.'
And silence sung on the desert floor.
A nomad’s heart in a sunlit trance,
Mauritania guards an ancient dance.'
