The Levant

Known by many as the cradle of civilization, the Levant is a region in the Eastern Mediterranean that has historically been a crossroads of people and culture. Its history has imparted a rich cultural heritage, which is best exemplified in its incredible art, food and treasured traditional crafts. Artisans use centuries old knowledge and techniques to produce a vast array of items from ceramics to woodwork, jewellery, textiles and more.

Sadly, many cherished artisans, artists, creators and producers are struggling to survive. Recent reports suggest the sector is in steep decline, which threatens the loss of invaluable talent, culture, knowledge and tradition. 

Even in this climate, there are those artisans who endure, continuing their craft against the harshest odds. There are also budding entrepreneurs, designers and artists who seek to incorporate their cultural heritage in new and exciting ventures.

LVNT seeks to assist these creators across the region, to not only survive, but thrive, by introducing their products to a wider audience abroad. We offer a curated collection of authentic and unique Levantine products including pantry, homeware, bath and textiles. Our site is specifically curated to provide a seamless shopping experience for the conscious consumer.
