About the Founders of Culin Home:
The Djavaheri sisters founded their houseware company, CulinHome, to help transform everyday home life into a creative experience.
"We developed our products for those who love design and approach living with both flair and practicality,” says Sepi.
Growing up in Europe and raised in a Persian family business of houseware design, fuels their ability to bring unique, designed pieces with an ethnic flair to American homes.
They look to the Germans for functionality, the Italians and Persians for design, and their own superior manufacturing capabilities to fulfill their mission.
They manage to pull off haute couture of kitchen design at a reasonable price point. "It is as important for us to emphasize accessibility, as beauty,” says Shoshana. “There is already a deluge of really expensive and high end products. Our formula is aesthetics and affordability." |
