Choose your piece
Maker
Hand-woven by Kamba women artisans, demonstrating a lighter, more open variation of the traditional kiondo weaving technique.
Meaning
'Mpenzi' translates to beloved. This variant pairs natural ivory sisal with bands of warm cocoa brown, a softer, lighter take on the earth tones of the Kenyan landscape.
Making
Natural and brown-dyed sisal fibers are twined in alternating bands, creating a structured yet breathable net-like vessel. It is finished with tall, rope-wrapped brown sisal handles and a densely woven, solid base.
Use
A light, breathable everyday tote. The open weave and gentle two-tone stripes make it an easy companion for market runs and carrying essentials with natural style.
