Interesting collection of souvenirs, replicas, etc. Worth a stop if you're shopping around for gifts!

Spectacular clean African market. Salespeople are not at all pushy like the markets on Long Street. The building was also clean and didn’t stink like the one on long street. I browsed around and found just what I wanted. A lady was so so helpful to me but was not pushy. HIGHLEY RECCOMEND!

I purchased some beautiful cushion covers for a friend. Chantal Puma from the store was amazingly helpful in assisting me, I was buying remotely from the UK and another friend who happened to be travelling to Cape Town picked them up for me. The recipient of the cushion covers was absolutely delighted, thanks so much to Chantal for all your help.

The most comprehensive range of African crafts from South Africa and other parts of Africa. Products are expensive and you cannot haggle but they are good quality and make great gifts. The large shop is spread over several floors with the collectors items located on the upper floors and souvenirs on the ground floor. Staff are very helpful and knowledgeable. Large items can be shipped overseas.The shop is situated in a lovely part of the vast V & A Waterfront outside overlooking docks.

This extraordinary store carries the widest variety of African museum pieces, replicas and knickknacks I have ever seen. Very high quality and fair prices. There are three jam packed floors, with the higher quality items on the higher floors. Items are from everywhere in Africa. Staff are knowledgable, polite and friendly, and made useful recommendations about value. Shipping is available, but not cost-effective for shipments to North America under R3,000. They have literally thousands of masks, as well as various ceremonial and decorative goods. The tourist products are well priced and non-negotiable. If you like to decorate with African items, you can start and end your shopping here.

This place is flooded with African produces and gifts. It even includes furniture and cutlery. There is a side selection of items to choose from, however the staff is unfriendly like as if they were scold.

This writer experienced prejudice while shopping to buy souvenirs for my family back in New York City in the African trading port establishment Wednesday , September 21, 2016, at approximately 9:15 am hours while on vacation.

Upon entering this establishment I greeted what appeared to be an older African man by saying good morning. Said male hesitantly looked up in my direction to even acknowledge me as I asked him a question in regards to the prices of what appeared to be various African mask. While observing the mask to select one for purchase I noticed what appeared to be an Indian man standing at the top of a stair case. After viewing the mask I decided to explore the establishment for potential additional gifts for my family, as the fact being all of my family members did not want a mask from Africa, and this gift would have been suitable for one of the members of my family, different objects other than this I knew were more desired by alternative members in my family. During the time of my searching for a gift, I turned around and noticed that the Indian male I had seen earlier at the top of the stairs appeared to be following me and watching me in the store. When I observed him doing this he did not ask me if I needed help or if I had any questions about any of the merchandise. He simply stared at me with an emotionless face as if he were monitoring my movements in the store. Offended, I decided to leave this establishment and I did such without incident. I have not traveled 7,803 miles, a 19hr + flight from New York City to Cape Town South Africa to be subject to prejudice while on vacation. I experience this enough in New York City. We are in the year 2016 and it is unfortunate some people still prescribe to the ignorance of the past. I refuse to support empty-headedness, which in my humble opinion was the behavior displayed by this misinformed individual.
