Ahwenepa Nkasa
Fabrics in Ghana have proverbial meanings. The fabric that we have used for this first collection is named Ahwenepa Nkasa, which means ‘good waist beads do not make noise’. This is a common proverb among Ghanaians which implies you should let your deeds or character speak for you.
Handmade in Ghana, these tote bags are the perfect bag for your everyday essentials from your laptop, gym wear to groceries. With a reversible design these tote bags offer double the styling options with Ahwenepa Nkasa fabric on the exterior and in the lining of the bag.
Our tote bags honour the Ghanaian Tradition of Day Names. In Ghana children are given a ‘day name’ which corresponds to the day of the week when they were born. A child named Adwoa is born on a Monday.
