Commitments

Since its creation, AS’ART has embraced a vision of craftsmanship that is human, fair, and sustainable.
We believe that beauty only finds meaning when it is shared.
Behind every object lie gestures, lives, and skills that we are proud to support and help flourish.

Supporting artisan communities

For over thirty years, AS’ART has been deeply committed to the artisans it collaborates with across Africa.
Each order directly contributes to the economic and social vitality of local communities — representing today several hundred full-time jobs.
We actively support women’s work, often from home, and encourage the settling of rural populations by valuing the transmission of traditional skills.
Our independence and high standards in the field foster fair, lasting, and respectful relationships.
Despite distance and logistical challenges, we maintain strong bonds of trust — an essential connection linking artisans, clients, and partners in a shared pursuit of excellence.

 

 

Preserving know-how and promoting excellence

Driven by a genuine passion for natural materials and everyday objects, we share with artisans a deep enthusiasm for creation.
Through constant dialogue, we encourage them to preserve and revive traditional techniques — true cultural treasures that deserve to endure.
By giving new life to these ancestral gestures, we aim to rekindle pride and strengthen the value of their craftsmanship.
This shared pursuit of quality results in creations of remarkable refinement, where hand, material, and spirit come together in a timeless harmony.
