African art productsAfrican Art Products has been created out of the fascination with the African continent and its arts and handicrafts. Africa is populated by millions of artists and artisans who produce wonderful works of art which very often have no access to international markets, except the occasional tourist bringing h om e a souvenir, these artworks thus remain relatively unknown to a wider public.


Pr om otion of African artists and artisans

African Art Products is dedicated to pr om oting the work of African artists and artisans by bringing you quality products based on art created by these African artists and artisans and by telling you who they are, where they live and why they choose to bec om e artists.

African Art Products works with artists and artisans fr om coun tr ies in and outside Africa and pr om otes, to the best of our possibilities, the entire range of visual arts such as paintings, drawings, photography as well as textile art and other decorative arts.

Fair tr ade principles

African Art Products is dedicated to fair and equal tr ade with the artists and artisans we work with and we respect the established fair tr ade principles such as long term tr ade relationships, paying fair licensing fees and providing financial and technical assistance wherever possible.

Our Philosophy

African Art Products will ensure that its products are safe to use of the highest quality and value for money.
African Art Products will al wa ys provide quality and courteous service tr eating all cust om ers as partners by listening and living up to their c om mitments.
