This double door is made by hand in our workshop in Marrakech. Its main feature is a pointed horseshoe arch, carved in relief right across both leaves. The arch is edged with a scalloped band and comes to a point at the top center. The corners outside the arch are cut with simple line drawings of triangles, zigzags and small suns, the kind of marks you find on old Amazigh woodwork in the south of Morocco.
Inside the arch, each leaf has a tall panel carved with a stylized tree, its branches folding up from a central stem. Below that are two short panels, each with three keyhole shapes, then a tall panel filled with rows of circles and triangles. Another keyhole panel sits at the bottom. The finish is a pale, worn natural tone, rubbed back so the honey color of the wood comes through in streaks. Two iron ring pulls on round scalloped plates sit at the center, above a long iron slide bolt with a drop latch. Twisted rope molding runs down both sides of the frame.
Every door is made to measure. 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’re unsure how to measure, we’ll help you through it.

Your door is wrapped in protective padding and packed firmly for shipping, and we’ll send tracking details once it’s on its way.
Because each door is carved and finished by hand, the streaks in the finish, the grain and the depth of the carving will vary a little. No two doors look exactly the same.
