Our Journey: From Frankfurt to Global Impact
The Early Years
Our activities began in the early 2000s at the Institute of Arab-Islamic Sciences in Frankfurt, where Prof. Dr. Fuat Sezgin's groundbreaking research established the foundation for our work. This period focused on collecting and preserving historical manuscripts from across the Islamic World.
Building the Collection
We designed and produced meticulous reproductions of exceptional instruments mentioned in historical manuscripts—either identical replicas or precise scale models that honor the original engineering brilliance.
