Savannen was founded by Hildegunn Tofting in 2015 with the goal of introducing the world to her favorite products made by the women of Africa, raising awareness about ethical production processes and encouraging sustainable consumption.
With its handmade African products, Savannen offers styles that preserve the origins of weaving as an art form, highlighted by the colors of Africa.
The philosophy is embodied in three main pillars: design that embodies a critical attention to craftsmanship, ethical and sustainable values in the production cycle, and a high-quality finished product that will never be mass-produced. Each product is unique and tells a story through detail, color and shape.
Savannan creates sustainable jobs, fair and meaningful work that has real social impact in the local community.
Our products are available in our online store and through our retailers. We also collaborate with interior designers, stores and galleries to create custom colors and tailor-made solutions for larger projects!
If you would like to become a dealer or have a project you would like help with, we would be happy to be contacted.
