Women-owned

I am a London-based artist and woodturner. With East African and Indian heritage, I am particularly drawn to working with rare and exotic woods. All of the timber I use is sustainably sourced, and, where possible, reclaimed.

Inspired by the woodturning traditions which developed in northern Africa 3, 000 years ago, to my knowledge, I am the only Muslim woman woodturner working in Britain today. I work from my studio in south-east London and am available for commissions, as well as tuition.

I am an accredited woodturning tutor and have exhibited my work at Handmade Oxford, Handmade Chelsea and Lamdmark Arts Centre. In 2024 I was shortlisted for the New Ashgate Rising Stars award.
