Proudly Serving Our Customers Since 1974

 

"It has been our family's enormous pleasure to trade and partner with Nema for over twenty years. One of the first things our daughter did when she purchased a house for the first time was to contact Nema and ask his advice on possible artifacts.  He is a man of many talents, and these gifts show in every aspect of his work.  He travels the Continent seeking cultural items that will enhance both the homes/shops of his clients and their personal lives.
 
One of the things we have come to value about Nema is his thorough historical and cultural knowledge about his wares.  He is so very generous in sharing what it is he knows and understands.  These are things which cannot be purchased in a typical store!
 
The Grundy Family appreciates and thanks Nema, and we wish him and his family all of Africa's best!!"

“Since 2001, I have purchased shea butter from you.  I love your warm and open personality.  I have also found you to be extremely knowledgeable of the history of African Art.  Several years ago, I was diagnosed with acute arthritis in my spine and knees.  After using your shea butter for a few days, the pain in my knees and spine disappeared!  A few years ago, I started using your shea butter as a facial moisturizer.  Within days, my skin became so smooth.  Although I am 64 years old, people are constantly complimenting my smooth skin.  Thanks for selling a great product!”
