Rooted in Story: Bringing African Home Decor to Life in Dubai and Beyond

Rooted in Story: Bringing African Home Decor to Life in Dubai and Beyond

When we decorate our homes, we’re not just placing objects — we’re telling stories. Stories of who we are, where we’ve come from, and what matters most to us. At Blumi, our African home decor collections are more than beautiful pieces. They are whispers of ancestry, rich textures of culture, and handcrafted love passed down through generations.

We’ve curated a soulful range of authentic African home decor, from Binga baskets handwoven in Zimbabwe to Bogolan fabrics dyed in Mali’s riverbanks. Every item in our collection carries the fingerprints of a real artisan — a mother weaving in the midday sun, an elder carving by firelight, a village collectively preserving tradition through craft.

Why African Decor? Because Home Should Feel Like Heritage

Whether you're in a sleek Dubai apartment or a rustic villa in the desert, our pieces blend seamlessly into modern spaces while grounding them in authenticity. African interior design is not a trend — it’s timeless. Think earthy tones, raw textures, and stories etched into wood and woven into cloth.

Our African wooden masks — like the powerful Songye masks from the Congo or minimalistic black and white wall pieces — offer more than wall art. They bring presence. Protection. Conversation.

Handmade Bolga baskets from Ghana aren't just decor; they’re functional beauty. Use them as planters, laundry hampers, or textured wall installations — they evolve with your space and spirit.

Sourcing Sustainably, Giving Back Meaningfully

Sustainability is at the heart of what we do. Our bone beads, ostrich eggs, and recycled Krobo glass beads are sourced ethically, supporting small communities and repurposing materials with purpose. Our African-inspired furniture is made-to-order, with vibrant upholstery and handcrafted woodwork — a modern twist on heritage that celebrates both creativity and conscious living.

We proudly bring sustainable decor to Dubai, sharing Africa’s soul with a region hungry for authenticity and connection. Every piece sold helps preserve an art form and support a family.

From Our Warehouse to Your World

Based in a warehouse studio in Al Quoz, Dubai, our space is not just a shop — it’s a sanctuary of African storytelling. Whether you're looking for Gifts, interior styling, or custom pieces for your Airbnb, boutique hotel, or retail space — we’re here to co-create magic with you.

Interior designers across the UAE are turning to us for custom African decor, appreciating the depth and individuality our pieces bring to luxury, boho, and contemporary spaces alike.
