Tribal Collections

African crafts and souvenirs are hawked on every corner of the city; for something more unique and inspired, head to Collections on buzzing Long Street. The airy, two-level boutique carries a well-edited collection of African collectibles sourced from around the continent; expect handmade furniture, Carrol Boyes tableware, porcupine-quill lampshades, contemporary jewelry and original art. This boutique owned by Milene Rust carries a vast selection of African made products ranging from beaded Xhosa jewelry and rare ivory ornaments to contemporary animal-focused ceramic and bar ware collections. Rust has been sourcing African tribal crafts for more than twenty years and works with private clients to source everything from antique textiles and beadwork to tribal weapons.
