Mo's Crib USA
AFRICAN CRAFTSMANSHIP COMES TO LA - Nov 13
Vox Pop Branding LLC presents Mo’s Crib, a limited celebration of African craftsmanship, design and the extraordinary hands behind it.
For a few days only, Los Angeles is invited to step inside a world of handwoven magic, with more than 10,000 handcrafted pieces across over 300 styles making their way from Africa to Los Angeles.
Discover craftsmanship from South Africa, Ghana, Rwanda, Tanzania, Kenya and Malawi, and explore pieces made from some of the continent’s most beautiful, natural and unexpected materials.
At the heart of the exhibition is Mo’s Crib’s own story of material transformation. As one of South Africa’s leading manufacturers transforming recycled PVC into contemporary homeware, discarded material is given an entirely new life in the hands of skilled artisans. PVC is carefully prepared and intricately woven by hand into Mo’s Crib’s signature baskets, now among the brand’s most recognised and widely exported pieces.
But that is only the beginning.
Explore pieces made from banana bark, raffia and natural fibres, materials that are carefully prepared, shaped, wrapped and woven by hand using techniques and skills carried from one generation of makers to another.
Every single piece has been touched by human hands.
Look closely and you will see it in the intricacy of the weave, the variation in the fibres and the small details that make handmade objects impossible to replicate exactly. These aren't simply objects for the home. They are pieces with an origin, a material, a maker and a story.
Across more than 300 styles, discover everything from Mo’s Crib’s signature Wonky Baskets and woven storage to laundry baskets, furniture, statement pieces for the living room, handcrafted bags, hats, décor, accessories and beautiful pieces for gifting.
Come searching for something special for your home. Discover a piece that has travelled thousands of miles from the hands that made it to Los Angeles. Find a meaningful Christmas gift that wasn't produced by the thousands. Or simply come to experience the extraordinary possibilities of African craftsmanship up close.
For a few days, these pieces will all exist under one roof in Los Angeles.
And with limited quantities across many styles, what you see today may not be there tomorrow.
