ABOUT
At FSP, we take pride in crafting exquisite leather products that reflect the rich cultural heritage and natural beauty of Africa. Our diverse collection includes handbags, stunning cushions, and unique homeware items, all meticulously handmade by our highly skilled artisans.
Handbags
Our handbags are crafted from a variety of premium leathers, ranging from soft cowhide to distinctive game skins like Springbok and Zebra. Each bag is a masterpiece, showcasing intricate artistry and the dedicated craftsmanship of our artisans. Designed to be both durable and visually stunning, our handbags are perfect for those who appreciate timeless elegance and exceptional quality.

Our range of cushions brings a touch of ethnic glamour to any living room. Made from the same high-quality leathers as our handbags, these cushions are not only beautiful but also durable and comfortable. Each piece is designed to add a unique and stylish accent to your home décor, embodying the vibrant spirit of Africa.
