QÄSA QÄSA stems from the Amharic (Ethiopian) word to mean - inspire | motivate | awake
Hand-crafted in East Africa uniting heritage skills and contemporary style, each item empowers artisans and comes with its own special story and every purchase contributes towards forest restoration.

The founders, Aniqah & Naeema design the wooden utensils and serve-ware collection and work closely with their small group of wood carvers in Tanzania to have their designs come to life. They also source some parts of our collection from social enterprises and fair trade companies that we have partnered with, forging close relationships with everyone in the chain.

Every item is carefully handcrafted in small batches using locally sourced materials, uniting heritage skills with contemporary style.
