Collection: Soapstone Collection

Beautiful soapstone found near the village of Kisii in the Tabaka Hills of Western Kenya ranges in colour from deep gold to rich burgundy, pale pink to jet black, each piece having a unique combination of colours

Raw stones are excavated by hand in local quarries & carried to co-operative workshops. The stones are worked into manageable sizes before a kisu (small knife) is used to carve detailed work. Items are polished, hand-painted if required & sealed with beeswax. Intricate patterns are incised allowing the natural stone to show through
