Kongo, With Love
Our debut Fine Jewelry collection. A unique and beautiful blend of traditional craftsmanship and contemporary design. Each piece is expertly crafted by skilled artisans using only the finest materials, such as 18k gold, diamonds, and precious gemstones. The jewelry is inspired by Africa's rich culture and natural beauty and often features intricate patterns, symbols, and motifs unique to the continent.
Ornaments of Culture
Many cultures in Africa historically used jewelry as a sign wealth, power, and their standing in the society. For example, Fulani women in Northern Nigeria acquire their wealth through jewelry (often large gold earrings, and bangles) gotten as dowry and through trade. In the beginning of the fifteenth century, the people of equatorial Guinea used gold and ivory and traded it for glass beads, copper, brass and coral. In Benin, people of royalty wear hip ornaments made from brass that is worn for very special events.
