Our Story

Welcome to the exquisite world of Ancient Meridian, where luxury meets nature in the realm of self-care. Our brand is founded by Maria Tarantello, a visionary former interior decorator and model who reflects her passion for design, wellness, and natural beauty.

Inspired by botanical traditions rooted in African healing practices, each of our five signature soaps honours the natural world. From lush forests to dry savannas, these soaps celebrate the diversity and beauty of the landscapes that inspired them. Thoughtfully crafted in Australia, every bar is formulated with the finest botanical extracts, essential oils, and subtle high-quality fragrance oils, ensuring a gentle yet indulgent experience.

At Ancient Meridian, we believe in self-care as a sacred ritual. Our highly emollient, creamy soaps transform everyday routines into moments of serenity, connecting you to the essence of the natural world.

Whether you’re indulging yourself or giving the gift of wellness, Ancient Meridian offers luxury that nurtures both body and spirit. Discover the magic of ancient practices blended with modern elegance—and unlock the secret to radiant, glowing skin.
