Seal of origin - A beautiful label for beautiful products.



 
While we are still busy designing new items and creating prototypes together with our crafters, we've started to work on our corporate identity, too. Because we think that the packaging and the story are just as important as the products themselves. Well-conceived labels, logos, fonts and patterns simply make shopping a more sensual and rewarding affair. That's why all our wares will come with our signature compass label, so you know we've designed them here in Windhoek and they were produced in Namibia.

First samples from Gwaitalale Pottery.



Yeah! We started preps for our first, carefully curated shopping exhibition of Namibian crafts. To be seen (and bought) at markets around the captial later this year.

The first samples from our friend Vistorina at Gwaitalale pottery arrived last week. The mugs are wonderful and just like we had wished they would turn out. The perfect match for your morning fix of Slowtown coffee. We've kept the desgin really simple with  earthen brown and a thin black line just below the rim. More items in the same range will be added over the next weeks as Vistorina is busy preparing cereal and salad bowls.

Designed by Secretly Namibian in Windhoek.
Produced by Gwaitalale Pottery in Katutura.
