African Artistry
Through DAKAR BAZAAR we’ve created a new center of trade– a place for the exchange of art, of ideas, of cultures.
Those notions are reflected in the products and artisans we’re privileged to promote.
MEET OUR FEATURED ARTISTMatamiss
Matamiss creates a wide range of decorative ceramics—vases, bowls, plates—that are distinctly Ghanaian. To be more specific, the product designs are often derived from tribal symbols—Ashanti, in particular-- that pre-date the country of Ghana by centuries. All of this creativity and artisanship is the result of the owner and founder, Ms. Matilda Amisah. She literally built this business from the ground up using the clay soil unearthed from the property where she operates Matamiss. At her operations in Accra she employs and develops artisans and workers in the molding, design, kilning and packaging and logistics of this robust organization.
