About Us

Maroque was established in 2001, following an amazing trip around Morocco. I was completely in awe of the stunning lanterns, furniture and soft furnishings available that were not seen in the UK, especially not in Suffolk. The hospitable and friendly people we encountered inspired me to try to bring a little bit of this beautiful country home for everyone to enjoy. And so Maroque was born!

The name Maroque was inspired by the French name for Morocco, Maroc, but having a twist to the baroque.

The original intention was to bring interesting, attractive Moroccan home and giftwares to the UK market, and we hope we still do, but we have also diversified into all things Moroccan: with an emphasis on the hard to find ingredients and a comprehensive recipe section which we have put together in our free Little Yellow Cook Book and our Little Orange Cook Book for you to download.

We are working hard to build a business that takes the best parts of online buying and combines them with the human aspect of face to face shopping. We have a 2,500 sqft warehouse in beautiful Suffolk where you are most welcome to come and browse, and have a glass of mint tea.

If you haven't had a chance to look at our sister site Bhatik, www.bhatik.co.uk, please do. From bejewelled cushion covers, antique sari throws, and twinkling lanterns to elegantly hand carved sheesham wood mirrors. My range of home interiors tries to capture the very essence of India.

I hope you enjoy browsing the site, if you have any queries, please do contact me at info@maroque.co.uk or feel free to call me on 01449 723133.

Kind regards

Julie
