ABOUT ME In collaboration with @ModernEid Our 100% pure mulberry silk Damasq square print features a modern interpretation of this exquisite Syrian Inlay (Sadef) artwork. The History: Mosaic is an ancient art with roots going back thousands of years. In 1860's Damascus, a craftsman named George Bitar perfected the art of Inlay by grafting local wood with mother-of-pearl, silver & ivory. While other Levant countries produce similar handicrafts, Syrian mosaic became considered the best in the world for its high standards of quality, precision and beauty. By creating this new art form during a period of civil war in Syria’s history, George Bitar brought light in times of darkness and fear.  VELAs are uniquely crafted in batches, variations are expected.
