Vochti is a curated collection of furniture and objects shaped by material, craftsmanship and time. We buy in Europe and North Africa, we keep what has survived honestly, and we bring it to Cairo without refinishing it into something newer than it is.
About
We collect objects that remember.
What we look for
Five things, in this order.
Form
Proportion first. If the shape is wrong, nothing else saves it.
Material
Solid, and honest about being solid.
Craft
Joints that were cut, not injected.
Provenance
We want to know where it stood before.
Character
The part we cannot specify and always recognise.
We don’t believe an object needs to be new to belong in the future.
