Where are AMIKE STUDIO pieces made?
Amike Studio pieces are handcrafted in Rwanda by Aline Amike together with our network of women artisans. Different elements may pass through several hands before coming together in Kigali.

Are all pieces handmade?
Yes. Our pieces are made by hand using techniques including beading, bead crochet, sewing, knitting and other forms of hand construction.

Will my piece look exactly like the photograph?
Each piece is made by hand, so slight variations in shape, bead placement and finish are natural. These differences make each piece individual.
