People abroad often love Tunisian objects but meet the same wall: confusing shops, middlemen, unclear shipping, and products that arrive diluted. This page shows the clean path: how to buy from Tunisia directly, with everything intact.
What gets lost with middlemen
Origin: labels change; makers disappear.
Quality: blends, shortcuts, industrial finishes.
Price truth: cheap today = exploitation tomorrow.
Meaning: the object arrives without the hands that made it.
My Chakchouka’s answer: one bridge from maker → you. No middlemen. No relabeling. Traceable pieces only.
The clean way to buy from abroad (checklist)
Source: Choose direct-from-Tunisia platforms with visible maker pages.
Traceability: Farm/co-op/workshop named; region stated.
Materials: Real clay/olive wood/wool/glass; finishes explained.
Photos: Natural light, detail shots, minor variations shown (evidence of handwork).
Policies: Clear shipping times, duties info, returns, and support.
Packaging: Protective, recyclable, damage policy stated.
Payments: Secure checkout with international cards/wallets.
How we ship (simple)
Worldwide delivery: door-to-door with tracking.
Protective packing: objects arrive safe; replacement if damaged.
Duties & taxes: shown or explained before checkout, no surprises.
Support: one inbox, fast replies, human tone.
“That’s why we ship directly, worldwide.”
Diaspora note
If you live far from Tunisia, you don’t need a suitcase or a cousin. Order once; we handle the rest. You receive the same object a Tunisian home would — intact.
What to expect in the box
The object itself, with natural variations.
A short card naming the maker and region.
Care instructions (simple, functional).
Minimal, recyclable packaging.
Buying Tunisian goods from abroad should be easy. When the bridge is clean, the object keeps its weight and story. That is the point: access without loss.
