Last Thursday I was invited to the Bongani Jewels S/S 2013 Collection Event at Cafe Royale. The night was filled with luxury jewels, beautiful people, and free WINE! I had a chance to speak with the 21 year old designer and CEO, Sebastian Thempler to get a view of where it all started. The Danish creator has been based in Ghana for quite a while now, and since moving there truly became inspired by the Ghanian's love for jewelry making. Just three short years ago Thempler decided to start making his own jewelry and today it is a major success. He informed me that the pieces that were being showcased were taken out of the vault the same morning of the event. We who were there were the first to ever lay eyes on the unique collection. Bongani has distributors in certain parts of Africa (Liberia is one of them) and is hoping to expand rapidly in the next year. For more info on this one-of-a-kind luxury product click here.
