...IT'S ALL ABOUT NAIROBI,KENYA...
FIRST PIT STOP FOR SHOPPING
KITENGELA GLASS
Funky buildings and workshops decorated with colorful tiles and
artwork sit snugly in gardens set with STAINED GLASS WINDOWS, TILED
WALKWAYS, GLASS ENCRUSTED, STONE FENCES AND WHIMSICAL sculptures - BOTH
LARGE AND SMALL.
The best thing about this place is the
main attraction is the glass foundry were glass, all recycled and
collected from the Nairobi restaurants, fashion it into glass,
decorative pieces and functional objects. They were so creative person
and also save the environment by using the recycle things to survive.
NEXT!!!
SPINNER'S WEB
Not to be missed if you appreciate quality handmade products! A lovely
peaceful setting with high quality original and unique gift items.
The
variety of crafts is amazing from handmade quality leather goods, to
woven wall hangings, jewelery to items made from coffee wood such as
bowls.
The shop is a cooperative with the products arriving
direct from the artisans so the prices are fair.It was great that they
also have a coffee shop so you can take a break in between shopping!
FINALLY...
ZANZIBAR CURIO SHOP
This is an excellent place to buy antiques, souvenirs and other craft
items for your living room. The prices are very reasonable and you would
be hard put to match them anywhere even after bargaining! The good
thing the prices here are fixed- no need to bargain. Lots of antique
stuff. They sell what it says on the cover, the do not pass of some
cheap wood polished as ebony.
IT IS AN ANTIQUE SHOPPING EXPERIENCE AT NAIROBI!!!
