The Brand
Ruma started off in 2011 as Ruma Manis, an Indonesian based everyday tableware brand which means home sweet home. It was born through the passion of two high school best friends, Saski & Meida. Despite having been living in two different continents the friendship and the love for home are still going strong.
In 2023, Ruma Manis was re imagined by Meida through Ruma Home, focusing on tablescape products for special occasions, based in Amsterdam, the Netherlands.
The Founder
Born and raised in Indonesia, Meida grew up with strong influence of Javanese heritage, culture and traditions.
There are moments where special occasions are celebrated with grace, where ornaments are chosen thoughtfully, from the choice of batik patterns to the scent of the floral, they are orchestrated beautifully for that special moments. We bring this Indonesian touch of heritage in our products.
Spending most of her adult life in the Netherlands, she got to appreciate life in different way. There is beauty in the fall winter season, where you get to slow down, spend the quality time at home with your loved ones over glasses of wine, or with yourself. There is that joy when you see the first glimpse of flower after long winter months and there is nothing like fresh smell of spring and the feeling of sun on your face.
The Value
At Ruma, we aim to give that sense of beauties and serenity for your special occasions, both the big and small things in life. Whether it is that moment when you marry the love of your life or that special dinner you set for yourself on Friday night after successful week you had at work.
At Ruma, we celebrate relationships in our lives with grace and respect. We bring this value in our way of working, including sourcing responsibly, working collaboratively with our vendors based in Indonesia, Portugal & Greece. We respect the environment, heritage and craftmanship.
We aim to build long lasting and meaningful relationship with our partners and consumers, and we hope that we can be part of yours too.

Meida
