Between the sea and the horizon, there is a line where lightness turns into direction - that is where Lateen is born. Inspired by the lateen sail of dhow boats, this creation evokes the intuitive intelligence of a people who learned to read the wind and translate its breath into movement.
The Lateen sail is unique. Unlike all others, it does not impose its shape: it converses with the wind. Its sloping, slender, and asymmetrical profile reveals a rare balance between functionality and beauty. While other sails resist, Lateen yields - and in yielding, it wins. It captures the wind with grace and transforms it into a path, drawing the poetry of continuous movement in the air.
In the seas of the Persian Gulf, the Lateen sail was more than a nautical device: it was a cultural gesture, an expression of the harmony between man and the sea. In the golden light of dusk, its sloping surfaces mirror time - the coming and going of ancestral routes, the silence of the crossing, the eternity of the horizon.
It is this unique, light, and wise shape that inspires Alma de Luce. The Lateen collection could not have been born from any other memory: only the sail that teaches movement and serenity, only the sail that finds beauty in balance, could give shape to this piece.
Lateen is the symbol of the encounter between tradition and the future - a sail that continues to navigate, now, in the space of art and light.
