• FABRICS

These products are designed for use in African Interiors and will create a unique flavour pattern and ambience. Specialising in hand-printing and screen printing textiles, traditionally patterned in the rich colours of Africa. The fabrics are either sold by the metre or made up into a wide range of products, including table linen, bed linen, cushion covers, bags, fashionware and utility clothing. Incredibly, the humble potato is still used to produce unique wall hangings, fabrics, cushion covers and pictures. These are true art pieces, very labour intensive, with as many as 950 block prints per square meter. The base cloth is 100% Zimbabwean cotton and the pigments used are German manufactured which conform to international regulations. Also available the batik range. The fabrics are all dyed in natural products such as tea and coffee. Our paints and fabric chemicals are all bio-degradable. The traditional ‘sadza’ batik technique involves applying a porridge-like paste of maize-meal onto dyed fabric. (Sadza is actually the staple food of Zimbabwe). After that, the paint is applied and heated several times to reinforce the colours. Each product is monitored and controlled for quality purposes. Over the years, our products have evolved into contemporary pieces, showcasing the true essence of an African lifestyle. Our batiks are unique and every piece is authentic. The process is all hand-made and monitored to the very last detail.
