Zulu Creations
It is with great pleasure that
we invite you to view some truly
beautiful and unique handmade
products from South Africa.
The Zulu women of Kwa Zulu Natal
mostly make these products.
The
Zulu people are the largest
tribe of African People living
in South Africa. They originate
from the South East region of
South Africa, now known as Kwa
Zulu Natal. Traditionally it
is the women who make these
products while the men work
seek work in the mines and in
all the other industries. However,
with unemployment being a huge
problem, especially in the rural
areas, it is the women who are
using their traditional skills
as art form, and are becoming
more important, as in many instances
they are now the sole breadwinners
for their families.
