This door is made by hand in our workshop in Marrakech. Carved into the front is a horseshoe arch that reaches nearly to the top, outlined with a braided band. In the two upper corners, outside the arch, there are small carved leaf motifs. The two largest panels each hold a twelve-point star. Its petals are cut deep into the wood and sit inside a web of interlacing lines, a pattern you see on old doors and ceilings across Morocco.
Above and below the star panels are two narrow panels with a smaller star and a chevron interlace. Across the middle rail there’s an iron ring set on a scalloped flower-shaped plate, with an iron slide bolt and drop latch to its left. The door is painted a bright cobalt blue, worn back in places so the wood shows through on the edges and rails. Twisted rope molding runs around the full frame.
Each door is built to your size. Once you’ve ordered, send us the height and width of your door opening and we’ll make the door and frame to match. If you’d like help measuring, we’re happy to walk you through it.

We wrap every door in protective padding and pack it securely for the trip. You’ll get tracking details as soon as it ships.
Since the carving and paint are done by hand, small variations in the pattern, the color and the worn finish are normal. Each door comes out a little different.
