Thank you to everyone who has purchased A'myn products through our online boutique! We donated 10% of all online proceeds within the past year (from Ramadan 2022 - Eid Al-Fitr 2023) to the Arouri/Kazimi Scholarship Fund at Birzeit University.

A'myn will continue to extend 10% of its online proceeds to support education within conflict zone areas. The funds will continue to go towards the Arouri/Kazimi Scholarship Fund at Birzeit University, Palestine.

Aiming to positively impact the environment, society, and economy; A'myn incorporates the amazing artisans behind the creation and design thinking every step of the way while celebrating mindful production.

The artisans are Palestinian and Syrian refugees living in refugee camps or marginalized areas. They tirelessly hand tailored and hand made these beautiful and delicate Serenity rugs, varied from artistic to bold culture and heritage. Fairly rewarded for their unique work, every purchase made at A'myn empowers these artisans even further. Along the creation journey, we witnessed artisanal women refugees and men from marginalized communities grow their power, knowledge, creativity, finances, and well-being. A'myn is absolutely proud and grateful for this continuous experience and impact.

Packaging was among the first tasks we brainstormed, and tried and tested until we could get to the best result, keeping in mind these attributes: client experience, re-usable, elegance, quality, uniqueness, convenience, affordable shipping fees, and brand relevance as well as local supplier and artisan integration. The outcome was hand tailored bags by local artisans and local suppliers with multi-function use. These bags can be used as meditation props, laptop and tablet sleeves, travel cases, yoga mat bags, and every day bags.

The product, as one or two components were directly sourced internationally due to lack of availability, the majority of the product production was based in Jordan thus "made in Jordan". The product drivers included: variety for client relevance, beauty, inspiring and meaningful, quality, uniqueness, local artisan and supplier integration, slow living, and brand relevance.

Our lifestyle product allow us to transfer knowledge, broaden skills, and carve out a space within the supply chain, one piece at a time.

 

"A'myn is about the people and its purpose, there is an elegant and individualistic side to spirituality, where you can fully express yourself in the most meaningful way. When a client buys a "Serenity" they are not only supporting women who are Palestinian refugees, and men who come from marginalized areas, but also artists who extend their art to help us express our inner voice."
