Trying to remember the name of a shop really popular in the 90s! It sold items with an African theme, mainly sourced from Africa. Fair trade. Sandstone ornaments that were really popular.

Anyone remember it?

Thank you!

Just read you are from Bristol, was the shop in the Galleries near Athena? I remember a shop being possibly next door to Athena like that but can’t remember the name!

@GoingtotheWinchester
Many a mis-spent hour in Masai Mara. I still have a couple of pictures and a few 'sculptures' in the attic. Bloody loved that place.

Can anyone else smell patchouli and other incense and candlewax in this thread. I smelled a waft as soon as I opened the door !

PontiusPilates I love that clip. Dh and I if we see/hear past times have to say "what the fuck is past times" in that way too
Need to be careful when elderly relatives ask where their presents are from
