An immersive journey through African artistry and culture...

Visit Shop 30, and you'll feel transported to a vibrant marketplace brimming with handcrafted treasures from across Africa. This remarkable shop specializes in authentic African art and décor, with towering hand-carved wooden giraffes standing sentinel throughout-some reaching several feet tall with beautifully painted honeycomb-patterned spots. Carved ebony elephants, lions, rhinos, hippos, and zebras in every size create a veritable safari across the shelves.

The artistry here is extraordinary. Soapstone carvings in vivid rainbow colors-from cobalt blue and sunset orange to emerald green and deep purple-depict whimsical animal figures and abstract human forms. Graceful elongated sculptures of figures in traditional poses, detailed Maasai warrior portraits in pencil and charcoal, and batik-style paintings on fabric showcase the diversity of African artistic traditions. Hand-painted shirts depicting Maasai warriors with their spears make wearable art, while embroidered kufi caps and Rastafarian-style knit hats offer authentic headwear.

The jewelry and accessories are equally impressive. Walls draped with beaded necklaces, cowrie shell pieces, brass bangles, and colorful glass bead strands create a dazzling display. Woven sisal market baskets in traditional patterns, carved wooden drums, thumb pianos (kalimbas), and hand-painted serving bowls with geometric tribal designs round out the collection. Whether you're seeking a statement piece for your home or a meaningful handcrafted gift, Shop 30 offers authentic African craftsmanship with soul.
