Algerian Handicraft in Sydney Australia

Algeria is the largest country in Africa; situated South of the Mediterranean Sea, North of Mali and Niger, West of Tunisia and Libya and East of Morocco’, with a population of close to 38 million according to the 2013 report. The Algerian population is very young and alive; 70% of its population is under 30 years of age.

The majority of the population are claiming being Imazighen (Berbers) or acknowledge having Berber blood in them. The main spoken languages in Algeria are Arabic, French and Tamazight, which is the original name for Berber (Dialects of Tamazight are Kabyle, Chaoui, Chenoui, Targui/Touareg and M’zabi).

Similarly to the Moroccans, the Berbers of Algeria are also specialised in similar handicrafts with some differences that distinguish the region for authenticity. We can name handmade Kabyle silver and red coral jewellery, Tuareg silver and precious stones jewellery; Berber Rugs that are different from one area to another, ceramics and pottery, trays and tables from Constantine made with tin or copper, Kabyle and Algerian clothes, paintings and artworks, Poufs and ottomans, cushions, slippers, wallets, musical instruments (Algerian Mandoles), Sahara sand roses, and much more. See our Algerian products catalogue >>

The Algerian population is Australia is very small, therefore no Algerian restaurant can be found in the country; and no other handicrafts shop exists apart from us. The diversity of the Algerian cuisine is jaw-dropping, but unfortunately unknown in Australia. You can see some Algerian recipes on our website.

 We can help you organise an area of your home, which you can call “Algerian corner” that contains all the authentic Algerian handmade items that will make feel that you made a trip to Algeria.
