- Summary
- COI synopsis: African designs have inspired several generations of European designers and artists, and none more so than the design of jewellery whether of the most inexpensive beads or the most precious stones. It was no surprise, therefore, for us to discover a shop offering exclusively the jewellery of Africa and with the full knowledge of the history and origins of each piece.
- Researcher Comments
- According to the shooting script, filming took place at the Turak Gallery, St Christopher’s Place, London, and the photojournalist and jewellery designer Angela Fisher was a contributor. NB: Information drawn from the Ghanaian version
