ÖZGÜNİLGÜN Culture
Kutnu is a traditional fabric made from silk and cotton, whose history has been preserved for centuries in the Anatolian region. Its shiny, delicate appearance comes from the fine craftsmanship used to produce it.
The sewing and beadwork of the products are crafted by hand. So, naturally, there are no exact similarities between each item. Each piece is hand-crafted and is one of a kind.
Remember that ÖZGÜNİLGÜN has unique pieces that will make you feel special in your everyday life or in special moments, so it deserves to be protected in a special way too. It is suggested that you properly keep it in order that you can use it for a long time by adopting the perspective of "AVOIDING OVERCONSUMPTION".
We would like to see the smile on your face when you wear your favorite ÖZGÜNİLGÜN piece!
OUR SUSTAINABILITY PHILOSOPHY IS BEING TIMELESS AND CLASSIC. Capturing unforgettable moments while adopting a natural stance is our motto. A piece that has value will live on forever.
