www.womanthismonth.com 51 February 2016 showcase Limited luggage space and exorbitant prices are some of the reasons why certain artefacts you find on your travels do not end up coming back home with you. However there is a store that houses some of the best global folk art pieces and antiques right here in Bahrain. Spirit Antiques and Handicrafts in Enma Mall is your one-stop shop that houses some of the most exquisite global handicraft and antique pieces. Opened on January 1, it has attracted art and interiors enthusiasts with a penchant for authentic craftsmanship and global sensibilities. Great amounts of effort went into liaising with artists and commissioning the right pieces that would truly reflect the maker’s ingenuity and would appeal to the aesthetic preferences of the buyers. Each handicraft item has been made exclusively for Spirit. Created with a lot of passion, there’s nothing in the store that’s been mass produced in a factory. Hence each piece captures the maker’s spirit and seems to have a soul of its own instead of being another assembly line clone. Each object has been made with 100 per cent natural materials and has been hand picked by Spirit’s curators. These pieces also make excellent gifts and are a delight for any interior designer as they can be made part of any project. You can also find antique furniture, ancient Malian pottery and Benin bronze pieces for sale at Spirit. The brand endeavours to bring to the market some inspiring original art and to make it accessible to the people at reasonable prices so it can be part of any home. Call 77 721-112 and 39 608-824. Buying an original art piece can leave a sizeable dent in your pocket; however there is a store that offers exquisite artwork that can bring a touch of global culture to your home at affordable prices.
