Magnificent collection of original and stylish jewelry (necklaces, bracelets, earrings...), created with recycled and/or natural materials, in brass and silver. Abraham Konga is self-taught, if he is present (he works on site), he will take the time to explain his approach, his background, his sources of inspiration. His store is worth a visit. Moreover, it is cheap (on average 15 000 Frw). The website will give you a nice overview of his collection. To visit.

A friend brought me to Abraham Konga Collections when I visited Rwanda for an extended time 4 years ago & I have since gone back every time I’m in country.
His jewelry has become my favorite to wear & If you like unique jewelry or classic/simple jewelry, this is the place. I have purchased jewelry as Christmas gifts for my friends & family in the states & they absolutely love the pieces. imigongo also made great gifts for family members & we purchased multiple for our home. When I visited with my husband a few years ago, he lost his cross necklace & Abraham made him a custom one, it was very well done. Not only is the quality great but Abraham is the most kind & generous artist which makes it one of my favorite stops in Kigali! I look forward to visiting again soon :)

I have loved coming to Abraham’s shop and studio for so long that five years after my first visit when I bought a pair of gorgeous gold sleek earrings, I came back to buy more beautifully crafted pieces— unique rings and eye catching bracelets and necklaces— and he kindly replaced my old tarnished pair of earrings, which was missing one, for free. Not only incredibly high quality craftsmanship but kind customer experience all around. Abraham is a one of a kind artist.

Very nice shop, recommended for authentic and refined designs and objects. The owner and designer applies a sustainable approach to his jewelry creations. Inventory is pretty vaste and prices are reasonable.

Abraham Konga has consistently been my favorite store in Kigali and favorite jewelry store I’ve ever been to. The pieces are reasonably priced, all upcycled from brass padlocks and cowbone, and BEAUTIFUL. Abraham handmakes all of the items and you can see how much care and attention he puts into them. He also does free polishing and if you ever have an issue, you can come in and he will fix it. I love how the brass looks like gold and how easy it is to upkeep (he encourages you to get it wet!). Abraham is also just such a kind person and wonderful to talk to. He stands by his product. Finally, you can also request custom items and he is willing to design them together. I will shop here again and again!
The best at Kigali and around

Abraham's place is a fantastic one-stop for all your souvenirs. The staff is non-intrusive and helpful with anything you might need. It was great to talk to Abraham about the items made on the spot, as well as any item in the store and its origins. Prices are reasonable, and you won't feel like you're being scammed like elsewhere.
