This double door is made by hand in our workshop in Marrakech. The motif you notice first is the keyhole shape, the rounded-top silhouette used in Moroccan arches and doorways. It’s carved in rows of four across five panels on each leaf. Between those rows are two larger panels. The upper one holds a stylized emblem: an inverted triangle on a central stem, wrapped in a scrolled outline and finished with crossbars and hooked corners. The lower one is filled with overlapping almond shapes that link together like woven scales.
The wood is left in a light, natural tone, so the grain, the knots and the small wooden pegs in the stiles all stay visible. The frame is plain and square, which keeps the attention on the carving. The ironwork is black and heavier than on most of our doors. The two ring pulls sit on four-lobed plates, and the long slide bolt is mounted on four decorative plates, all fixed with round brass-colored rivets. The drop latch has a long, shaped handle that ends in a faceted knob.
We make every door to order. After you order, send us the height and width of your door opening and we’ll build the door and frame to fit. If you need help measuring, just let us know.

Each door is padded and packed carefully for shipping, and we’ll email you tracking details once it leaves the workshop.
Since everything is carved by hand, the keyholes and almond shapes vary slightly in size and depth, and the knots and grain will be different on every door.
