Irthi Contemporary Crafts Council is a Sharjah organisation that works with women artisans to keep traditional Emirati and regional crafts in use. It produces collections that apply techniques such as talli braiding, safeefa palm-frond weaving and sadu weaving to contemporary home accessories, fashion items and objects, often in collaboration with designers and brands.
