Our Story

Kethi Roanu was born from a deep love for Maldivian culture.
Its patterns, its stories, and the quiet craftsmanship passed down through generations.

As modern life continues to reshape our traditions, we felt a responsibility to preserve what is slowly fading. The coral stone carvings, the etched motifs, the forms shaped by hand and memory. These are more than designs. They carry identity, belonging, and time.

At Kethi Roanu, we look back with intention. Every pattern we revive is studied, respected, and understood. Each one holds a story of skill, pride, and continuity. Through careful research and thoughtful making, we translate these stories into pieces that feel grounded in the present.

We believe heritage should not exist only in memory. It should be lived.

That belief guides everything we create. From prayer mats to objects for the home and everyday life, our work brings tradition and modern simplicity together, honouring where we come from while allowing space to move forward.

This is more than a brand.
It is a tribute to the Maldives.
A quiet commitment to protect what came before, and to pass it on with care.

Thank you for being part of this journey.
