Simple pleasures: homemade sourdough with lashings of artisanal butter & a great pinot noir. Sunday made. Make sure to dress the scene it with a lovely nuggety brass butter knife.

Feels like now that all 3 stores — and our brand new state-of-the-art goldsmithing studio — are finally complete, perhaps it’s time to revisit something we once loved deeply: Kirsten Goss Abode.

I grew up surrounded by beautiful Scandinavian cutlery and tactile objects, and always dreamt of having that world sit alongside the jewellery as a natural extension of the brand. For a good while, we did exactly that — handmaking sculptural brass, steel & solid silver servers and collectible table pieces here in South Africa.

But the reality was that it demanded enormous time and skill from the same highly qualified goldsmiths making our jewellery. The opportunity cost became difficult to justify while the core jewellery business was growing so rapidly. In truth, it needed an entire department of its own.

Now, years later, I find myself wondering whether the timing may finally be right again.

What I’d genuinely love to know from you all is this:

How much do you still value handmade and locally made objects in South Africa? Do you feel there is still space in the market for artisanal, design-led home objects — or have larger lifestyle brands already saturated that world?

Would you invest in locally handmade sculptural servers, cutlery and collectible tabletop pieces if they were made beautifully enough to last a lifetime?

Very curious to hear your thoughts before we decide whether Abode deserves a second chapter.

If you haven’t tried the new Nespresso store in Cav you’re missing out. They show you around and let you taste. Went for the Paris espresso - if we can’t be there - we may as well be transported. Was def yum. Bon cafe. ☕️ ☕️
