Awinjo Collection

Awinjo means I Feel in the Luo language, a reflection on memory, weight and the experiences that remain with us.

Nature offers a quiet parallel in the dung beetle; small in scale, yet instinctively moving a weight far greater than itself.

A reminder that strength is not always measured by size, but by the ability to carry and continue forward.

A reminder that strength is not always measured by size, but by the ability to carry and continue forward.

Made by hand in leather, Awinjo brings together hand-stitched beadwork, a raw leather interior, brass details and adjustable leather straps.

• We carry objects.
• We carry knowledge.
• We carry memories.

And sometimes, what we carry becomes part of who we are.
