Celebrate the Beauty in Craftsmanship

These pieces are infused with heart, soul, and stories; imperfections add character and value; heritage skills are honed and refined; new is created out of old as ingenuity keeps traditions alive.

Design Indulgence

atelier | 55 presents a beautifully-curated selection of sophisticated products for contemporary living. Sourced and hand-picked by Tapiwa from some of Africa’s finest design ateliers.

“

atelier 55 upholds the principles of true luxury - a type of luxury that is no longer defined solely by price, but rather by the 'money can't buy' attributes of time, experiences, and emotional connections.
