Kids furniture

Although these are not new, I just realised I never posted any pictures of our range of kids furniture here. We have been using locally made ordinary furniture and "dressed" it with cloth. The we apply our secret protective concoction and you can wipe it clean with a soapy wet cloth or sponge! Available in a selection of fabrics or with your own choice.


Dresser, table, stools, kids-height handwashing station...


And a rain of knitted jute and batik floor cushions for a playful and inviting children's nook:

What we are working at

While most of GhanArts' workers are toiling at a new ever-increasing jewellery order for our NYC designer client, I'm left to give the finishing touches to what we're going to exhibit at the yearly ATAG (Aid to Artisans Ghana) pre-Christmas bazaar on 26th November.


Unfortunately, I'm not very good at production work. I find it much more fun to come up with new designs. So yes, while I was supposed to actually complete some samples and copy them for the event, my mind drifted again and I ended up trying something new.


It has to do with cocoa jute sacks and batik that is just not good enough to be used as is, but has gorgeous colours. The inspiration was my bedroom carpet... Enough said!

Back to finishing what is already more than half completed. Enjoy a fulfilling and creative day, all of you!

Kamo stool

Ottoman, side table, stool... Definitely not your average African kitchen stool anymore! All our Kamo-flaged items receive 5 coats of protective varnish, making them dust-proof and easy to maintain.



Repose-pieds, bout de canapé, siège... On est loin du banal petit tabouret de cuisine! tous nos articles Kamo-flés sont protégés par 5 couches de vernis et sont à la fois durables et faciles à entretenir.

Backstage GhanArts

We are about to embark on a journey in the depths of our creative process. This blog will give you a unique glimpse into what we do, how we do it, and what inspires us.

Grab a seat! why not opt for this Kamo chequered stool, which you can also use as an end-table, a stand for your indoor potted plants, a step to reach a shelf that is too high for you or your children?


All the items in our Kamo range are made of wood and covered with 100% cotton African print, protected with multiple coats of clear varnish to make them dust- and stain-resistant.
