    I love Jewels style Vanessa, she's making Africa look like Africa, not the U.S. or the UK. When we go to China it looks like China, when you go to Germany you ride in a German built BMW or Mercedes taxi. I love her vision for the African look. 😀👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

    This is it... artisanship, scholarship and the value is evident. If I was in Ghana or Naij (and could afford) I'd buy one of these tables. Native to the land, rare and built with careful and deliberate artisanship. What I think we could all do without is the idea of "we need to show the world", "we need to ask ourselves"... we don't need to do anything. Create and consume organically, reimagine your world for you and if your imagination is great enough, you will love the world you create.
