MISSANGA

On the island of Mozambique, under the arcades of the rua Cabral, there is a small store selling jewelry and other African handicrafts that is really trendy, run by Amina, nicknamed "Nina", a French-speaking Mozambican. On the pretty brown wooden shelves: African masks, bags, hats, makonde sculptures of local wood, baskets, shawls, capulanas, clothes and some cosmetics, you will inevitably find your happiness. For the pleasure of the eyes as much as the pleasure of offering or to please oneself, one comes to make a small turn in the Missanga store.
