In a world driven by the rapid production and consumption of industrial goods, handmade artworks hold a distinctly different place. Among the most treasured branches of Iranian arts is wood inlay—an art in which natural woods, with their authentic colors and textures, come together to form a new expression of beauty and creativity.
Garen, as a specialized brand in wood inlay, is dedicated to presenting this authentic craft with reliability, precision, and global standards. Within each piece lies not just an object, but a fragment of culture, history, and the soul of Iranian art.
Garen: A Fusion of Iranian Heritage and Global Standards
Garen was founded with the mission of showcasing wood inlay art through refined, authentic creations—where Iranian artistry meets scientific quality management and international standards.
By using natural woods, crafting every detail by hand, and issuing an official certificate for every premium artwork, Garen’s pieces are not only valued in Iran but are also competitive and presentable on the global stage.
As part of its developmental path, Garen adheres to international ISO standards, including ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, and IMS. These frameworks ensure that every stage of production—from wood selection to final finishing—is carried out with precision and clearly defined principles, which are especially vital in handmade craftsmanship.
What Makes Garen’s Art Different?
The uniqueness of Garen’s creations lies in the combination of four essential elements:
Authenticity, Aesthetics, Quality, and Time.
1. Authentic Woods
All woods are completely natural, and every color is inherent to the wood itself. This grants each artwork a unique identity—one that cannot be replicated.
2. Aesthetic Roots in Iranian Culture
Designs are either inspired by traditional Iranian motifs or influenced by contemporary art. This fusion creates pieces that are both rooted in heritage and relevant to modern taste.
3. Craftsmanship Quality
In wood inlay, quality is defined by precision in cutting, selection of wood textures, alignment of wood grains, harmony of design, and final finishing. Garen’s artistic team approaches each of these with exceptional sensitivity.
4. Time & Mastery
Each piece requires anywhere from 30 to 300 hours to complete. This extensive investment of time and skill elevates the emotional and collectible value of the artwork.
Masterpieces: Where Every Artwork Is Created Only Once
One of Garen’s most defining qualities is its creation of exclusive, single-edition masterpieces.
Each piece is produced only once and comes with an official certificate containing:
Artwork title
Serial number & identification code
Artwork image
Materials and woods used
Weight, dimensions & technical details
Name of the designer and creator
Execution time
Care instructions
Warranty
Authenticity hologram
This documentation ensures each artwork is traceable, original, and collectible—a rarity in the world of wood inlay, and a key reason Garen is trusted internationally.
Artistic Collections: Limited Editions with Contemporary Use
Alongside its exclusive masterpieces, Garen produces a curated collection of artworks in limited quantities, still entirely handmade. These pieces are ideal for luxury daily use, interior décor, and meaningful gifting.
The designs blend traditional and modern inspirations, striking a balance between beauty, functionality, and affordability.
The Creation Process: From Wood Selection to Living Art
Garen’s wood inlay process is entirely handcrafted and unfolds through several precise stages:
Selecting natural woods from reputable workshops
Cutting wood pieces with exact measurements and angles
Arranging elements based on the chosen design
Layering and assembling with harmony in grain direction and texture
Final finishing and oiling with 100% natural, eco-friendly oils
Quality inspection according to global standards before delivery
This method ensures every piece is not only visually stunning but also durable and environmentally conscious.
Customer Experience: Encountering True Authenticity
Many customers express astonishment when they first see the artworks up close—usually for two reasons:
The realization that the colors are completely natural, without any artificial dyes
The depth of time, patience, and mastery embedded in each piece
This makes Garen’s creations more than a purchase; they become part of the home’s visual identity or a treasured element of an art collection.
Garen’s Vision: From Arasbaran to the World
The name “Garen” comes from a rare and endangered tree species in the forests of Arasbaran—a symbol of authenticity and natural value.
Garen’s vision is to introduce Iranian wood inlay to the world and to participate in international exhibitions. This path is shaped through the union of traditional craft, contemporary design, global standards, and specialized packaging for export.
