About Us
Zahara, in our native language Kiswahili, means “to flower or to bloom.”
We exist to empower and sustain the longevity of African craftsmanship & the livelihoods of these communities as we bridge the gap between African artisans and individuals in the Diaspora.
Our products, though contemporary, exist to pay homage to Kenyan culture, customs & traditions rooted in Maasai-themed products and beadwork practices.
By purchasing our products, you support the payment of fair wages to the curio artisans that source and up-cycle product materials locally and ethically.
