Coqlico is a Lebanese startup with a mission to preserve and promote the rich cultural heritage of the Orient through modern interpretations of traditional designs, specifically the Finjan Chaffé. The brand’s name, inspired by the French word “coquelicot” meaning poppy flower, symbolizes “rebirth” and is often associated with hope and renewal—a fitting reflection of Coqlico’s ethos.
Launched in Beirut in September 2020, Coqlico quickly gained recognition for its ability to transform the traditional Finjan Chaffé into a modern symbol of cultural pride and craftsmanship. By reimagining this iconic object with new proportions and purposes, Coqlico designs handcrafted products that evoke nostalgia and foster a deep emotional connection to Lebanese heritage.
Given the current difficult circumstances Lebanon is enduring, Coqlico is committed to supporting the community during these challenging times. In light of the ongoing war, the brand has decided to share a portion of its proceeds with BASSMA NGO, that is trying to ease the burden of war among those deeply impacted by collecting food and necessities to survive this challenging period. This initiative reflects Coqlico’s dedication not only to preserving cultural heritage but also to contributing to the well-being of society.
The brand’s unique approach merges centuries-old craftsmanship with contemporary design aesthetics, offering artisanal products that embody elegance, history, and innovation. Coqlico’s creations—from home décor to unique gift items—celebrate the beauty of Lebanese and Oriental heritage while catering to modern tastes and the global Lebanese diaspora.
“Coqlico is more than just a brand—it’s a tribute to our culture and heritage. By blending traditional artistry with modern design, we aim to offer a unique experience that connects people to Lebanon’s rich history while supporting the local economy and craftsmen,” says the Founder and CEO of Coqlico.
In addition to the carefully crafted Finjan Chaffé, Coqlico places significant emphasis on the overall customer experience. The brand’s packaging is designed to provide a unique unboxing experience, with highly secure boxes intended for safe shipping worldwide. Coqlico’s fully integrated online shop ensures a seamless purchasing process, offering global shipping from Lebanon via DHL Express within days.
Since its inception, Coqlico has showcased its products at prestigious international events, including the Lebanese Pavilion at Expo 2020 Dubai, and has been featured in renowned retail spaces such as @creambeirut and @citiesdubai in Dubai Mall. In Lebanon, Coqlico’s products are available at concept stores like @solea_concept and @museedition.
With the signature motto “From Lebanon to the World,” Coqlico continues to craft timeless pieces that embody hope, love, and connectedness—offering a curated experience for Lebanese worldwide.
