Rhythm and melody

African music has been around for a long time. It’s a central part of African life and, whether you know it or not, it’s probably part of your life too. The sounds and rhythms of Africa can be heard in contemporary music worldwide. Handcrafted drums, rattles, shakers, xylophones and string instruments combine with African voices to create a rich and harmonious feast for the ears.

These canes are made for walking

18-01-2015

When you think ‘walking canes’ you probably think of elderly people (or possibly Fred Astaire), but did you know they can also be art?

All that she wants

15-12-2014

We all love to spoil our female partners, relatives and friends with gifts, but in our lucky country it sometimes seems like everyone already has everything they need. That’s why individually handcrafted African gifts will definitely get her attention, whoever she is. From African art and crafts to fashion, even the girl who has everything doesn't have one of these artefacts because each piece is one-of-a-kind.

Out-of-the-box gifts for kids

23-11-2014

There’s no way around it, kids just love presents. To be honest, I think we all do but that just goes to show that we’re all still big kids on the inside. Uniquely handcrafted African gifts will make an impression, from brightly coloured animal soft toys, miniature soapstone sculptures and wooden animal toy cars to t-shirts and treasure boxes, sculptures, key rings, musical instruments and jewellery.
