About Me

My name is John and I co-own a business with my older brother. We mostly do Beaded Jewelry and mostly sell outside Africa. We have never tried the local market here yet for some of our products but I'm sure they'd stand a chance. We've done art exhibitions in different countries including Tanzania and Rwanda which happen annually. We mostly make Earrings, anklets, necklaces, mirrors, keyholders, waist beads and tussles. I'm very Hardworking and I mostly clock 12 to 13 hours on Daily.

My Business

Mostly our business entails art work as mentioned above and specifically deal with beadwork. We are flexible to claywork and wood but mostly we are focused on Beads. We been doing this for the last 5 years dealing with different clients from all over the world. We mostly work on order basis and our prices are always favorable. We treasure our African ethnicity and culture so mostly our products are African themed. Our biggest inspiration is South African Beadworks coz it's more of the originators

Project Proposal

I'm planning to go get a few Drop beads (Colours) that I'm short on and then buy a roll of thread size 3.

    I got some drop beads which helped me finish up some earrings for a client based in the U.S. I'm so grateful. Thank you Zidisha community for this platform. I was able to ship out on time and the client was very happy with my work.
