PUURO NOW LIVE! 🤎
Puuro, meaning a flower in Frafra, draws from the baobab’s cycle of flowering before it fruits. It is a woven expression of becoming.
Each piece reflects growth, femininity, and identity through patterns, colour and form.
The collection carries stories shaped by generations of weaving knowledge. Puuro exists as a dialogue between tradition and modern design, where material, handwork, and symbolism come together to express identity through form and craft.

MAYAABA - @lfjofficial X @handmadebyakua
MAYAABA carries the beauty of handwork in its purest form, where raw raffia and straw is transformed into vibrant, textural piece of art.
Handwoven slowly by women whose craftsmanship lives in every detail-this piece is made for the woman who doesn’t just get dressed, but chooses pieces that hold memory. Pieces that feel personal. Pieces that remain with her long after the moment has passed.
Available at @akokolagos and on Handmadebyakua.com
INTRODUCING ZELE
In Gurusi, ZELE means egg - the very inspiration behind this piece. Delicate, protected, and treasured, just like the woman who wears it.
ZELE was made with a rare woman in mind — one who carries herself with softness, yet leaves a lasting impression without ever asking to be seen. 🤎
Ethically handwoven in straw and intricate crystal detailing.

Some bags carry your things.
KPASKA carries the entire look.
It transitions effortlessly between a statement piece and a functional essential. KPASKA holds your essentials on the go, unfolds into a mat wherever you choose to pause, then folds back into a bag when it’s time to move.
For the woman who values style, sustainability, and meaningful craftsmanship.🤎

Handwoven in straw, raffia and our signature shells and crystal detailing.
PIGU
