Hello!
My name is Zuzana, and I warmly welcome you to my online shop, filled with the vibrant essence of traditional Africa! My journey, however, is a little unconventional – since 2006, Nigeria has been my second home. It's where my husband comes from, and it's a place we regularly return to with our family. Today, we are surrounded by the joyful chaos of our three children, who are lucky enough to grow up embracing both of their cultures and seeing the world from different perspectives.
I have always wanted to do something meaningful. And as we move between these two worlds, we have quite literally stitched a plan – through thousands of stitches in our beautiful fabrics. In Africa, we source these fabrics, known as Ankara or Wax Print, from market women – often mothers for whom this is their only source of income. In the Czech Republic, I collaborate with talented women who transform our fabrics into finished products. This allows them to work from home while staying close to their children.
I love the idea that my business not only sells beautiful things but also connects and empowers people. For me, it's not just about commerce – it's about building meaningful relationships and creating opportunities. As a mother, I understand how challenging it is to balance work and family life, which is why I wanted to give women the chance to work while still being there for their children. I hope you appreciate this as much as I do. Because sometimes, all it takes is an idea, determination, and a little courage to turn a great project into reality. And this is my journey.
Let yourself be carried away by your own piece of Africa – we have stitched it just for you.
