Leatherworking
The leather work represents an art in the Berber culture of North Africa especially for the Tuaregs. Animals are bred for food, clothes, bags, saddles, and water bags, rugs, shoes, wallets and many other items used in their everyday lives. Everything is done by hand. Sometimes you noticed some imperfections with the items, that is because no machines were used. Sometimes products are slightly different than what you see on the pictures, and that is for the same reason. Please let us know if you don't agree with that.
The leather for its flexibility and resistance is used for making a multitude of objects in Algeria (horse saddles, slippers, cushions, handbags, etc. ...). The most active centres are the highlands, the Hoggar and the Mzab. Big cities like Tlemcen, Constantine retained the expertise of artisan tannery (debbaghines), but now this knowledge is lost faced with competition from Europe.
The craft of Tuareg in this area presents originalities such as taghallabt, an object shaped wallet or aghreg, which is a travel bag. The leather of the region comes from goats or camels. It is coloured with copper oxide giving it green hues and decorated with symbols of the Tifinagh inspired alphabet.
In Kabylia, sheepskins and goatskins are also sometimes transformed to make bags and travel bags without decoration.Currently the Algerian leather sector is in crisis and needs rehabilitation due to globalization and severe competition (Inspiration from Wikipedia.org)

De la part d'un Touareg originaire du Niger, vivant en France et qui défend la culture berbère en ayant fondé LA MAISON DU SAHARA en France, félicitations pour votre site et votre représentation en Australie.
I'm very pleased

La robe que j'ai commandé était très satisfaisante, elle est arrivé largement dans les temps, et les changements que j'avais demandé ont été pris en compte et les mesures ont été bien appliquées et la robe m'allait très bien. En gros pas de points négatifs hors mis une toute petite tache de feutre qu'on a essayer d'enlever ce qui a un peu altéré le tissus sur le devant, mais je pense que ça arrive rarement. Je recommande donc ce site à tous le monde, la qualité est irréprochable. Je referai commande sans hésitation. Et surtout assistance et service après vente plus que satisfaisant, merci pour cela.

This is a very exciting website! I like being able to see decent sized pictures of the products, and a brief history and explanation of the items is also very interesting and effective. Im very excited at the opprotunity to purchase such exotic and beautiful items so easily! Gotta love the internet for that right! Im looking forward to seeing the pottery and rugs too - cant wait for that! Keep up the good work, and I hope your goal is achieved - to familiarise australians with this mystical culture and it's beauty. Well done!

I am so pleased to send this email. The Nativity arrived today in perfect condition. It is beautiful. Thank you for helping me receive this Set. Please pass along my thanks to the artist. Does she make other figures? I would like to add some more 'village people' to the Set. This could be women and men bringing gifts to the woman and boy. Maybe typical foods or fruits, etc. I realize this is an unusal request, but maybe just give it some thought. Once again, thank you for everything. Joe
