Handcrafted Elegance & Cultural Heritage

The Significance of the Sankofa Symbol: Learning from the Past

At the heart of this collection is the Sankofa symbol, a vital part of the Adinkra symbols from West Africa, particularly among the Akan people of Ghana. Depicted as a bird looking back to retrieve an egg or as a heart-like design, Sankofa encourages us to revisit the past and carry its lessons forward into the future.

The word Sankofa means "Go back and get it," derived from the Akan saying:
"Se wo were fi na wosankofa a yenkyi."
Which translates to, “It is not wrong to go back for what you have forgotten.”

This powerful message serves as a reminder to always learn from past experiences. The Sankofa symbol, elegantly incorporated into each piece, represents personal growth, knowledge, and the importance of embracing history as part of one’s journey.
