Landing Pages

Nine of the eleven proposed pages are supported by the catalogue. Four of them already exist under names nobody searches for.

Measured against all 357 products and all 7 live collections on 27 August 2026

The naming problem

128 products on labels nobody searches /collections/tapestry holds 65 Persian rugs. A tapestry is a woven wall hanging. These are floor rugs: 63 of the 65 titles say Carpet, 51 say Persian. Not one says rug or tapestry. Rugs are named in the homepage meta description as a core line, and the page holding all of them cannot be found.

/collections/lightning holds 37 lights. Lightning is weather.

/collections/murano-lighting is titled "Lighting". 92 products, and the word Murano is not in the title.

26 product titles say "wall scones". A scone is a baked good.

Together that is roughly 128 products, a third of the catalogue, sitting behind names that cannot be found. None of it requires new content to fix.

What the catalogue supports

Counts are products matching the category across title, description and tags. Four of the eleven map onto collections that already exist and need upgrading rather than building.

Collectible Design

A positioning page rather than an inventory page. Nothing in the catalogue uses the phrase, which is exactly why it needs writing.

36 products match on description but not one product title uses the term. Needs tagging before the page can be populated.

Scandinavian Design

15 products, 3 in titles. Too thin, same problem as the weaker designer pages.

Defer
15 products
Too thin

Two changes to the plan

Recommended Defer Scandinavian Design. Fifteen products, three of them named in a title. The same thinness that rules out four of the designer pages.

Tag before building Mid-Century Modern. Thirty six products match on description but no product title uses the phrase, so the collection has nothing to assemble itself from. Tagging is the prerequisite.

Also worth noting: /collections/tables holds only 8 products. Too thin to rank on its own. Fold it into Vintage Furniture Dubai until stock grows.

Murano Lighting and Murano Chandeliers are already specified in the Murano build pack.

Assembly is a Dubai showroom for vintage and collectible design, sourced internationally and held in Al Quoz. The collection runs across seating, lighting, tables, Persian rugs, art and objects, with a particular depth in Italian design of the 1960s and 1970s and in original Murano glass. Every piece is a period original rather than a reproduction. Pieces can be viewed by appointment, and where something is not in stock the sourcing team can look for it.

The largest part of the Assembly collection, at one hundred and nineteen pieces. Lounge chairs, sofas, armchairs, stools and benches, weighted toward Italian and American production of the 1950s through the 1970s. Knoll and Cassina are both well represented. Condition and originality are described on each piece, and reupholstery can be discussed where a frame is sound but the covering is not.

Opening copy

Sixty five vintage Persian rugs, predominantly Kerman and Tabriz, in original colourways from soft peach and butter yellow through to olive, lavender grey and deep blue. These are hand knotted period pieces, sized from runners to room rugs. Assembly sources them alongside the furniture so that a room can be put together in one place rather than assembled from three suppliers.

Why this page

This is the costliest naming error on the site. Sixty five Persian rugs sit on a URL called 'tapestry'. A tapestry is a woven wall hanging, these are floor rugs, and 63 of the 65 titles say Carpet. Nobody searching for a Persian rug in Dubai will ever reach this page. Rugs are named in the homepage meta description as a core line.

Assembly's lighting runs from original Murano glass chandeliers and sconces through to Italian table and ceiling lamps by Artemide, Flos and Stilnovo. This page is the way into all of it.

Why this page

The lighting collection is currently on /collections/lightning. Lightning is weather. This page also needs to sit above Murano rather than beside it, because 92 of the site's 148 lighting products are Murano and the two are currently disconnected.

H1Italian Vintage Furniture and Lighting
Opening copy

Italian design is the deepest theme in the collection, running to one hundred and forty nine pieces once furniture, lighting and glass are counted together. Cassina and Poltronova for seating, Artemide, Stilnovo and Flos for lighting, and the Murano houses for glass. The 1960s and 1970s are the centre of gravity, which is the period now driving most collector demand.

H1Collectible Design
Opening copy

Collectible design is the phrase for pieces bought for what they are rather than only for what they do: period originals with a known maker, a documented design and a limited surviving population. This page sets out what separates collectible design from general vintage furniture, what affects value, and how a collection is usually started.

Why this page

'Collectible design Dubai' is one of the ten core searches and the phrase appears nowhere on the site. It is also the positioning the whole plan is built on, so it needs a page that states it plainly.

H1Mid-Century Modern Furniture
Opening copy

Mid-century modern covers roughly 1945 to 1970 and is the period most people mean when they say vintage design. Assembly holds pieces across seating, tables and lighting from these decades, including Knoll production and Italian work from the 1960s.

Why this page

Two of the ten core searches are mid-century terms. 36 products match on description, but not one product title uses the phrase, so the collection cannot be built automatically until products are tagged. Tagging is the prerequisite, not the page.

8 product URLs containing "scone" once those titles are corrected.

Shopify does not create these automatically when a handle changes. Each one must be added in Navigation, URL Redirects before the handle is edited, or the old URL returns a 404 and any equity it holds is lost.
