Plates, bowl, pots, cups & saucers; tableware with African
energy. Africa Café Ceramics creates a wide range of functional
tableware that will make you feel different each time you sit down for
a meal. Each piece is different, but all the items in a range combine to
create a multitude of settings. Own something unique; to remind you
of your trip to South Africa or to bring warm, handcrafted design into
your home.
Vibrant colours from fabrics and foods; the soft greys and greens
of Namibias cactus desert; the bold patterns of the plains animals on
the Savannah at dawn and the rich browns of the vast, rocky Karoo.
Africa is the inspiration for every piece, whether it's a simple bowl or
an exotic Bird Jug.
Bowl n,
an open container,
usually round in shape and wider than it is deep, and typically used for holding food.
The act of creating is not confined to he who calls himself: artist.
Our craftspeople come from the winelands, the city and the township.
Some are trained and some learnt on the job. One picked grapes for
an estate, another painted gold-leaf onto a lion on top of City Hall for
six weeks and one wrote his final exam on Modern Art this year.
From their hands come the crazy "zig-zag" of a Zebras stripes, the
perfect circles on a banded vase and fine geometry of Ndebele murals.
We take pleasure in harnessing their skills to bring you the best of
Form and Function.
