Cara Jordan

Hi There! From a young age, I was drawn to gemstones and jewelry, believing not just in their beauty, but in the symbolism and personal meaning behind each piece.
I believed that the world not only provided material to be worn, but material to help us become more grounded and appreciated.I believed that everything that the Earth could offer was far bigger and better than our understanding.

Five 2 Jewellery

FiveTwo projects the story of two lifelong friends from Dubai who share a passion for both fine jewelry and the same ring size, hence the inspiration behind the name. As young girls, founders Ayesha and Shahrzad were entranced by the jewelry worn by their glamorous mothers and grandmothers. Growing up, they took great delight in trying on their intricate, bespoke and carefully assembled pieces that were passed down through generations.

The Waterfront Market

BOKSHA

Welcome to BOKSHA, the region’s online marketplace dedicated to discovering authentic designs created by UAE homegrown talent.

The name BOKSHA (بقشة) comes from an Arab Gulf dialect referring to the piece of fabric tied from the top and used as a head carrier by street sellers to hold their garments. Once at the marketplace (souk), the sellers would place their Boksha on the ground and showcase their items for sale.

Nuna Atelier

Nuna Atelier is a Dubai based clothing brand established in 2011. The brand operates as the main fashion retailer under Noora Belle Fashion LLC.

Story of Source

Story’s story (no pun intended) has been long in the making, but it was a trip to Guatemala in October 2018 where Story of Source was born. Guatemala gave our intent color, our dreams shape and further fueled our desire to preserve and nourish indigenous craft in a fair and sustainable manner.

It is our hope that with every collection, Story will help sustain indigenous craftsmanship and encourage artisanry, a dying art in many parts of the world.

Why Go-Lokal?

We should support our local market (local products & local brands) by empowering people within the UAE to do business with local companies and local entrepreneurs that are based and operate from within the UAE.

By connecting the local community we aspire to support the local economy, making its unique brands better known, and create awareness for authentic tour experiences. Go-Lokal gives you access to all hidden gems the UAE has to offer.

Lokal of the month

Mleiha

Mleiha, a UNESCO-nominated World Heritage Site in the Central Region of the Sharjah map, is home to a number of significant sites, including Bronze Age tombs and pre-Islamic forts. Fascinating artifacts and fossils were discovered here, including pottery, iron tools and camel skeletons. The Mleiha Archaeological Centre, which opened in 2016, houses these discoveries and even more artifacts that uncover ancient UAE history.

The centre also offers a range of tours and activities. You can explore the archaeological sites or venture into the sand dunes with a desert safari. Alternatively, you can also try other desert adventures like riding a quad bike or dune buggy over the sand. If you prefer to go on foot, consider trekking to Camel Rock for an expansive view of the desert. The surrounding area is a beautiful location for a desert camp on soft dunes and under glittering night stars.
