Our story

2013

MASKA is a gifting design studio & concept store born in Dubai, UAE. Our story started with an inquisitive fascination with the Japanese culture and specifically the Furoshiki, a traditional wrapping cloth.

The founders adopted and adapted this art to better suit the Middle East by using exquisite fabrics and contemporary design, and launched their first store in Jumeirah, Dubai in 2013, MASKA the brand was born.

MASKA quickly was able to establish itself as a brand where clients can find a very new gift-wrapping experience. The first business to successfully introduce fabric wraps to the markets and create a gifting trend across the UAE and the GCC.

2014

MASKA is committed to positively impacting its community. In 2014, we launched the Sewing Machine Initiative, where we supported children’s education and disadvantaged families through providing the women in the household with home-based jobs. We introduced a line of MASKA wraps produced by them.
