was founded in Bamako (Mali) in 1994 by the always smiling

Mahamadou Traoré.

His main objective is to create ‘original’ African utensils
and to give a boost to people’s new ideas.

In doing so he creates employment for a lot of artisans.

One of his future priojects will be to create a space were
these artisans can work quietly with all the necessary
equipment. Next to this line of ‘original’ items

Mahamadou also has a line of old trade beads,
masks and antiquities. In this way he is continuing
the business his father founded in 1945.
