Bring a warm African welcome into your home, shop, office or guest space with these 5 handmade wooden signs.

Each plaque features a carved African word or phrase, finished with decorative patterns and small beaded accents that give the piece a beautiful handcrafted touch. The dark lettering against the warm brown wood makes the words stand out clearly.

Different sayings are available, including Karibu (Welcome), Asante Sana (Thank You Very Much), Pole Pole (Slowly/Take It Easy), Hakuna Matata (No Worries) and Jambo (Hello).

These signs work beautifully as wall or door décor and also make thoughtful gifts for anyone who loves African culture, Swahili language or Kenyan-made pieces. They are suitable for homes, restaurants, cafés, hotels, Airbnbs, offices and gift shops.

Because each piece is handmade, there may be small differences in the wood grain, beading and finish.

Available in retail and wholesale quantities.
