Buying gifts for guys can be hard - they either have everything they need, they want impossibly expensive gadgetry or they say they don’t want anything at all. But if you buy him something strong, stylish and unique you’re probably on a winner. African art and crafts have an inherent strength and boldness and African artists are known for their creativity, style and flair.

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.

In the Bag

If bags are the ultimate accessory, then African bags are surely the ultimate way to get your Motherland mojo on. An animal print leather bag or a bright Madagascar basket will transform any outfit and you can even look great when you’re doing the shopping with a kikoy or khanga cotton shopping bag that’s better than a green bag in every possible way.

More than just a trinket, a piece of African jewellery is truly unique because each item is handcrafted so no two are alike - you could even think of it as wearable art. Jewellery is still an important personal accessory in Africa, and now that Motherland Curios is bringing these stunning individual creations to Australia, you too can add some statement pieces to your collection.

African Fashion Finds

African fashion has been around for a long time and as it continues to evolve, it provides inspiration for celebrities and designers the world over. The easiest way to incorporate African fashion into your wardrobe is to accessorise using scarves, belts and African-style sarongs called kikoys (for men) and khangas (for women). And Motherland Curios’ handcrafted Maasai sandals are the perfect footwear for any summer outfit.

A bit of decorum please

When it comes to interiors, an African motif is versatile and works equally well with clean modern lines or a rustic look. African interior design tends to incorporate neutral, earth tones combined with vibrant splashes of colour. Contemporary African decor is all about simplicity so don’t overcomplicate it when selecting from our collection of artworks and artefacts to enhance your home’s walls, surfaces and furnishings.

The Craft of a Culture

12-09-2014

What’s the difference between ‘art’ and ‘craft’? You could say that craft has a practical purpose and art is for looking at. With African art it can be a fine line, as artworks can have a practical purpose and handicrafts can hang on the wall. Just because something could be put to practical use doesn't mean it can’t be beautiful too.
