Welcome to Kipekee Artisan, where every piece tells a story. Rooted in Africa’s vibrant traditions and inspired by modern design, we exist to celebrate the beauty, resilience, and creativity of African artisans.
Our name, Kipekee, means unique—and that’s exactly what we bring to you: unique treasures that connect heritage with contemporary living.
Our Story
It all began at the heart of Nairobi’s Mwariro Market, surrounded by the colors, textures, and rhythms of African craftsmanship. We saw not just products, but stories—woven into baskets, threaded into beads, and printed into fabrics.
Kipekee Artisan was founded to share these stories with the world, creating a platform where heritage meets global style while uplifting the communities that keep these traditions alive.
Our Mission & Values
We believe that fashion and design can change lives. That’s why we are committed to:
Empowering Artisans: Partnering directly with makers and paying fair wages.
Sustaining Traditions: Showcasing authentic beadwork, weaving, and prints passed down for generations.
Celebrating Culture: Every piece you buy supports the preservation of Africa’s rich cultural heritage.
Promoting Sustainability: Using natural, eco-friendly materials wherever possible.
