AfrikBoutik.com Brings One of a Kind and Hard to Find African Art to Europe and North America
"There was a time just a few years ago when only CNN had a reporter in Africa. Today everyone from tourists from Nebraska to Hollywood movie stars to newspaper journalists are visiting Africa constantly. We've seen a huge upswing in Westerners wanting African art and crafts for their homes and lives," said Brian Legair, co-founder of AfrikBoutik.com, a site specializing in affordable one-of-a-kind art objects from Ghana, West Africa.
The site offers a wide selection of very high quality art items including African art, sculptures, masks, traditional African clothing, leather bags, and even djembes -- Africa's leather-topped drum that has recently become standard everywhere from drum circles to coffeehouse open mic's in the West.
"One of our company founders is an art expert living in Africa. We have inside access to many of the continent's top artisans, giving us the ability to bring very high quality art to Europe and North America -- much higher quality than was available to Westerners in the past," Legair said.
AfrikBoutik.com was founded by Legair, who lives in France, with the help of long-time friend Joseph Bilson of Ghana, West Africa. Bilson is an authority on African art and its importance in African culture. See the site at http://www.afrikboutik.com .
African jewelry and leather items often take countless hours for a very skilled artisan to create. Such expertise would cost a small fortune in the West, but Africans produce this top quality art at some of the world's most affordable prices.
"Africans have a different way of looking at the world, a view that is more in tune with nature and often more at peace with their inner souls. You often see tourists bringing home African art because it helps them maintain their connection with African life and attitudes throughout the year," Legair said.
AfrikBoutik.com offers English, French, and Portuguese versions of the site while shipping products to customers throughout the world. The site offers a 21 day money-back guarantee to insure customer satisfaction. All major credit cards and PayPal are accepted.
