Southern African Tribal Art Gallery
Galerie Ezakwantu is an upper
end source for authentic tribal art from Central and Southern Africa, dealing in
both 19th and 20th century objects. Special emphasis is placed on the Tsonga,
Xhosa, Thembu, Zulu and Mfengu peoples. It is situated in picturesque
Franschhoek, capital of the wine lands and the jewel of the Western Cape.http://www.ezakwantu.com

The village is
charming, with restaurants, cafes and shops. If you are a collector of tribal
art, you won’t want to miss a visit to Galerie Ezakwantu at the Village Centre,
Huguenot Road, Franschhoek. The well-informed Amanda runs the shop and the
previously mentioned Ken Karner is an owner, supplying the gallery with its
wonderful pieces from Southern Africa; there are many wineries in the vicinity
that you can visit.

There are beautiful mountains
outside our window as we eat breakfast. This is beautiful country. We went to
the town of Franschhoek and checked out the quaint shops. We bought a Zulu beer
pot at Galerie Ezakwantu in Franschhoek. It’s really neat and it’s old. The Zulu
women used to make the pots and serve beer out of them.

We arrived at our hotel,
Grande Roche in Paarl. This hotel is a member of the Relais and Chateaux,
and served as our base for further exploration of the wine country. Set on a
hillside, with views across the valley to those aforementioned splendid
mountains, the hotel provides lovely, spacious cottage suites, beautiful
grounds, two swimming pools, a small gym, tennis courts and hiking trails and it
is surely one of the best hotels in South Africa. In fact, it has been named
Hotel of the Year in South Africa.
The main building is a Cape
Dutch manor house dating from the 18th century. Be sure to visit the shop in the
main house. (Galerie Ezakwantu 2) In it, you will find an excellent
selection of Southern African art and artifact, discovered by Ken Karner, an
American expat and inveterate explorer. Rose, the manager of the shop, is very
helpful and knowledgeable. Bosman’s restaurant is also located in the main
building and is among the finest in South Africa.
