Noura Bouzo Crafts Miniature Hegra Incense Burners for AlUla
Saudi designer Noura Bouzo transforms Hegra's monumental tombs into sandstone incense burners, with smoke drifting from detailed carvings, sold exclusively in AlUla. Saudi designer, artist and creative director Noura Bouzo is making incense burners modeled after one of AlUla's Hegra archaeological sites. The decorated facades and monumental tombs are home to one of the largest ancient Nabatean cities, second only to Petra in Jordan. These red and yellow sandstone miniatures look like exact replicas of the country's first UNESCO World Heritage site. Noura's creation is crafted to have smoke dance gracefully out of a hole in the top of a small boulder. Below, two doors sit beneath triangular inscriptions that mimic the Hegra rocks. The one-of-a-kind incense burners are sold exclusively at AlUla shops. Noura is known for her incense burner recreations of famous Saudi Arabian landmarks, such as the Tuwaiq mountains and historical mud palace Qasr Saad in Diriyah. The artist founded Oasis Magazine, the country's first English language arts and culture publication, and co-curated Saudi's national pavilion at the Venice Architecture Biennale in 2023. She is also a co-founder of the creative consultancy &Bouqu.
