Yousef is the Arabic form of Joseph. His story is one continuous narrative in the twelfth sura of the Quran, Surat Yusuf, which says: We relate to you the best of stories (12:3). His beauty is often noted, especially in the literature after the Quran. In Arabic it is four letters in two joined pieces: it breaks after the waw, a letter that never joins the one after it.
Also written Yusuf · Youssef · Yousif — all the same name, and all of them reach this page.
Yousef — your name, set by the classical scripts. Open it in the Studio: it arrives already composed, and everything stays yours to reshape — the script, the colours, the ornament.
Have it made
As a calligraphy paint, from US$17. One line — this name — set in a classical script and printed to order in our UAE workshop: A3 on canvas, frameless, and framed by hand if you choose it. Five to seven working days. See the paints, or ask us on WhatsApp — a name is the single most common thing people send us.
Printed on canvas in Diwani, Thuluth or Nastaliq and framed by hand in our UAE workshop; or sent as a rolled canvas, unframed. We confirm the spelling with you on WhatsApp before printing.
A name is the one gift nobody else brings twice. These are the other pieces this name is usually made on, each cut and finished in the UAE: name pieces · framed wall art · serving trays. For the wall beside it, the Thuluth master pieces are complete lines written by a calligrapher. Giving it? The shop's birthday gifts, gifts for her and gifts for him include name pieces.
Three questions
How much? From US$17 as a paint — A3 on canvas, frameless.
Framing is chosen at checkout. Trays, boxes and framed pieces are priced on their
own pages.
How long? Five to seven working days before dispatch, plus a step to
confirm the spelling and approve the layout.
Can I change the script? Yes — open it in the Studio and switch between
Naskh, Thuluth, Diwani, Ruqʿah, Kufic, Nastaliq and Maghribi, with modern and display faces beside them. What you see is what
gets made.
Two names for a wedding or a new home? Set Yousef beside another name in one piece. Not a name — a line? The verses we write, with the poet and the source for each.
