Ramadan is a time for slowing down and counting your blessings. It is a time of reflection and rejuvenation of one’s spirit and soul. Our homes have always been our sanctuaries and havens but have become even more than that in the last year. Despite all the challenges, it has been a privilege to enjoy our living spaces with our families. Celebrate Ramadan this year by adding some magic with LJUVARE, the latest limited edition collection by IKEA.
Designed by renowned Middle Eastern designer Nada Debs and IKEA’s Paulin Machado, each piece has been crafted to feel handmade and heart-made from tealights and cozy floor cushions to contemporary kava cups and coffee pots. A bold mix of Middle Eastern design elements mixed with Scandinavian style, the LJUVARE collection breaks the mold of traditional Ramadan aesthetics.
Soothing earthy tones of orange and creams combined with sparkling gold create the perfect modern festive ambiance. The items easily coordinate with any aesthetic because of their versatility and timelessness. They also work perfectly with Nada Debs’s 2020 IKEA collection LJUV, that is available at the IKEA Online outlet at reduced prices. Whether you’re hosting iftar, suhoor or a festive meal with close friends and family, set the mood with these festive home accents and tableware that you’ll want to reuse throughout the year.
In touch with traditions
Those inspired by a more traditional Ramadan look can add an ornate touch with the antique looking lanterns to create a celebratory ambiance for the entire family. Designer Nada Debs was inspired by brass materials which are typically used in Middle Eastern culture, where the gold-ish hues represent the richness.
Beautiful inside and out
These beautiful pieces have been made with environmentally conscious materials using sustainable cotton and recycled polyester. IKEA believes in creating products that are both good for the home and the planet.
Functional and beautiful
Fancy moving dinner parties to the floor or lounging with friends and family for a cup of coffee? These vibrant floor cushions combined with cosy rugs and carpets will create a warm hospitable environment to celebrate Ramadan festivities.
Ramadan coffee is king
The quintessential Ramadan drink is traditional coffee. This year, surprise your guests with these contemporary kava cups, adding a modern twist to Ramadan traditions. These simple pieces will pair well with any kind of tableware.
Moonlit dining
Eons ago, the moon was a symbol of light guiding the way and keeping people safe. Now, let these soft glowing LED moon lights guide you towards a delicious iftar or a festive meal. More than just beautiful lighting, these LED bulbs consume up to 85% less energy and last 10 times longer than incandescent bulbs.
Celebrate old traditions with modern flair
It’s time to switch things up! The orange embroidered cushion covers add texture and drama to your low seating arrangement, creating a refreshing new lounge look. Made from cotton sateen, the subtle soft smooth finish oozes modern elegance, while the earthy orange hue pays homage to traditions.
Decor that brings style and comfort

Layer up!
Opt to dress your dinner table and coffee table with a modern take on traditional serving ware that’ll impress guests more than your lentil soup! The serving stand is a festive way to serve all kinds of pastries, fruit, nuts, cheese and dates. The generous height of the serving stand also makes for a beautiful centerpiece.
