Harmattan Handmade 2.87

Our name, Harmattan, pays homage to the visionary ideals of the 'Wind of Change' speech, which denounced South Africa's Apartheid regime and finally accepted the continent-wide desire for independence and nationhood. In adopting the name of Africa's most transformational wind we reflect our ambition, to emulate the Harmattan, a wind that sweeps across the Sahara; influencing every facet of life within reach of its dazzling haze.

Just as the Harmattan spreads winds of change across the African landscape, we aim to sow our own seeds of socio-economic change across the continent.

Every piece in our collection of finely-crafted merchandise tells a story. From our Timbuktu inspired ceramics, to crocodile tooth jewellery from the Victoria Falls and the vibrant artworks of our artists; we provide opportunities for African artisans to showcase their unheralded talents to international markets.

To acquire a Harmattan piece is to become the custodian of a finely-crafted, authentic African asset; an acquisition which signifies that the winds of change are beckoning.
