Throughout the month of May at Lionesses of Africa, we celebrated the incredibly creative and decidedly unique women jewellery designers of Africa, who are turning the precious metals, gems and semi-precious stones found here on the continent into beautiful decorative pieces for the world to wear. These women jewellery designers are putting the continent on the global map through their uniquely African-inspired designs and technical brilliance. If you missed reading their stories and learning more about the wonderful work they produce, and seeing the difference they are making on the African continent to the lives of other makers and crafters, then meet them now.
Each of these African Women Jewellery Designers is to be celebrated for the incredible passion for what they do, their brilliant craftsmanship, their unique eye for design, and their support for indigenous African jewellery crafting skills - we are so inspired by what they are doing.
