After a swing by Kookaï stock with Fanny on Saturday (all tops for 10€ woohoo!), we discovered a really cool art deco store called As’Art in a cute little alley. It’s concept is to create free trade with different countries in Africa, and it started in 1991. In the boutique, they sell contemporary deco objects, made by people from different countries in Africa, and all created following their tradition and culture…and I LOVE. I ended up buying a hippopotamus made in Kenya with soap stone. It was hand polished in water, tinted, and carved. I originally wanted a pink one, but they only had really big ones left, so I ended up with a medium sized kaki green hippo. I also bought a bracelet woven with telephone wire…lime green! J’aimes beaucoup. It’s so smooth and pretty! I think the next time I go, I’m gonna get me a bowl woven with the same wire.
