Embroidery

Embroidered cushions are a beautiful attribute for a couch or chair that needs that extra colour or flavour of Africa. All products are hand made, and thus each piece is unique. Embroidered placemats are an exquisite way to decorate a table to host one's friends.

What started in 1989 as a small project by a citrus farmer's wife, to provide a modest income for a few of the workers' wives, today provides a good living for no fewer than eight hundred Tsonga and Shangaan women. Each of these vibrantly colourful works of art is a veritable distillation of all that makes the Letaba River region so special - the rich agricultural cornucopia, the teeming wildlife and the abundant natural beauty. These remarkable craftworks are deeply rooted in the ancient tribal skills of Shangaan people.o on the farm.
