In the beginning, it was the box, the inheritance that successive generations passed down in the distant oasis, in Siwa, Egypt. Muhammad was the son of the fifth generation of a family that chose Sunset Oasis as its residence, since its displacement from Tunisia, while Issa is the Amazigh father, who decided to revive the Siwa heritage, In a previous step, many years ago, for amateurs of heritage products now.
Lighting units made of salt and natural wood, the last thing that the grandchildren reached, after the grandparents settled in Siwa, and became proficient in agriculture, trade and carpentry.

Years ago, Eissa turned his father’s carpentry workshop into traditional products. After the usual forms of carpentry in Siwi homes were limited to the use of the people of the oasis only, the demand for them became great from outside the oasis and all of Egypt.
Coincidence alone led Issa to go to Taba on a trip to supply some forms of wooden products and forms of Siwi salt to one of the tourist villages there, and in Taba his meeting was with a Polish engineer, who changed his view of salt products and learned through him their true value.
Issa tells Al-Jazeera Net, “I used to manufacture traditional products from wood and salt, as is usually the case of the people of Siwa, only because it is a habit that was inherited, but I did not know anything about the benefits of salt and its tremendous capabilities and positive energy, but my meeting with a Polish engineer completely changed my outlook, and my life is as well.” “.
An invitation received by the Polish engineer to visit the Egyptian oasis, and indeed he lived among its people for a whole month. This month was the beginning of good for the people of Siwa, as they knew through it what salt caves are, how salt is used to change the energy of the body, and treat nerves and nervous and psychological pressures arising from the tension of the city .
From Siwa salt, the Polish engineer built the first salt cave in Taba, and after it became the salt of the land for its people.

Eisa’s workshop relies on manufacturing salt and wood products and exporting them outside Egypt, but recently the demand for the workshop’s products has expanded into Egypt, stressing that many of the supply requests come from Cairo and Alexandria after the culture of the influence of salt on the energy of the soul and body spread.
Issa added to Al-Jazeera Net, that requests from the Arab Gulf countries compete with Europe now, stressing that the prices at which he sells his products are within everyone’s reach.
Issa helps more than 15 workers in his workshop, seeking to make the workshop a school of craft in Siwa, as he fears that his profession will be outdated by time, just as he overlooked the carpentry of the door and window in his father’s time, and Issa says, “Coincidence led me to a new path, but I always strive to develop it to continue The road is open for my children. “
