Likhweti

Locally Crafted Silver Jewellery Available at Likhweti

Likhweti Kraft, located in the Peak Fine Craft Centre, is the third outlet of the locally based company, Tintsaba Crafts. For more than 15 years, Tintsaba has been committed to the rural women in the Northern Hhohho region of Swaziland, focussing on the production of fine quality crafts.

Over the years, the company's projects have evolved beyond basketry, to include natural jewellery and now also silver jewellery.
Likhweti showcases Tintsaba's silver jewellery collection, which offers a wide range of rings, earrings, bangles and necklaces as well as toe-rings and anklets.

While some of the silver designs portray the traditions, beliefs and artwork of the Swazi people, others illustrate images from other African cultures. Jewellery pieces in the Coiling Range are made using the same traditional technique used in weaving Swazi sisal baskets.
Perhaps most noteworthy is the collection of Framed Sisal Jewellery.

This range integrates silver with the sisal disks produced by local women. The intricately patterned disks are framed in 925 silver and used in earrings, necklaces and as pendants. Many of the patterns woven in sisal are also mimicked in silver, yielding a distinctive blend of traditional and modern.

In addition to the silver collection, Likhweti boasts a variety of handmade crafts, some from Tintsaba's development project as well as others from craft producers based in Swaziland and other parts of Africa.

The shop is open daily from 8 am through 5 pm.
