The African Touch: Gift Guide
With Christmas around the corner, it’s never too early to start gift shopping. This year, why not give a truly memorable gift that captures the spirit of Africa and our great craftspeople and designers?
The African Touch is just a place to find such a gift. The company has been handcrafting furniture and decorative items from local hardwoods at their Victoria Falls workshop since 1992.
Each piece is beautifully crafted with the greatest respect for the material to ensure that it lasts for many generations to come.
Here are a few of our favourite things to give and get:
- Hemingway Field Bar
Adventures will love the finely crafted Hemingway Field Bar. Take it on the road with you and enjoy your G&T in style every evening while watching the African sunset.
2. Mari Safari Chair
Of course, campers need good chairs for fireside gatherings and the Mari Safari Chair is just perfect for this. The ultimate light, compact folding chair, it is comfy and easy to manoeuvre. Plus, it comes with a handy canvas cover that doubles as a carrier.
3. Mana Wine Carrier
The Mana Wine Carrier is perfect for transporting fine wines in style. Made from pure veg-tanned, full-thickness harness leather, beautifully finished and hand-sewn with a unique cross stitch, the wine carrier makes a great gift for oenophiles.
4. Wrought Iron Sun Lounger
Of course, the African sun can be enjoyed in many ways and those who prefer it stretched out next to a pool will love the Wrought Iron Sun Lounger with its teak slats and wheels for easy manoeuvring.
5. Campaign Bookcase
Armchair travellers will enjoy the Campaign Bookcase. Available in teak or mahogany, the bookcase features generous shelves that can hold a substantial collection of tomes, with brass corner blocks and straps to protect the edges of this beautiful piece – just as they would have in military campaigns of old.
