Inspired by where we come from.

The Stars brings together two things we never tire of: the quiet beauty of the South African landscape and the natural simplicity of the ostrich egg.

Hand-carved locally, its delicate pattern transforms with the light — subtle by day, beautifully glowing by evening.

A little piece of South Africa, wherever you call home.

South Africa gives us the materials, skill and much of the inspiration behind Leo & Stripes.

Giving something back was never meant to sit separately from the brand.

A portion of every sale supports meaningful wildlife and community projects in South Africa, while our local production helps sustain skilled artisans and employment.

A beautiful object can simply be beautiful.

We just prefer it when it carries a little more meaning too.

What happens to an infertile ostrich egg?

At Leo & Stripes, very little goes to waste.

The eggshells we use are natural by-products of South Africa’s ostrich industry. We carefully clean and repurpose them into décor, while the contents are upcycled into dog food.

Then local hands take over.

It is a small circular story, but one we care deeply about: using what already exists, respecting the material and creating pieces made to last.

Nature gave us the form. We added the detail.

The Bloom transforms the natural beauty of an ostrich eggshell with a delicate floral pattern, carved slowly and precisely by hand.

Unlit, it feels sculptural and understated. By candlelight, every opening begins to glow.

Made in South Africa for tables, shelves and quiet corners that deserve something special.

Meet The Bloom at Leo & Stripes.

Heritage can be something we inherit. But it can also be something we choose to carry forward.

For us, it lives in the natural materials of South Africa, in the hands of our local makers and in skills that have been refined over generations.

We honour that heritage by giving it a contemporary expression — creating pieces that feel distinctly African yet beautifully at home around the world.

This is what Natural African Luxury means to us.

This Heritage Day, discover pieces made in South Africa and created to be treasured far beyond it.

One bead at a time.

The Leo is handcrafted in Cape Town, where traditional African beadwork meets the simplest of forms: the ostrich egg.

We kept the pattern deliberately understated, allowing the texture to speak for itself.

The result feels distinctly African, yet entirely at home in yours.

The Leo is available online.

The kind of Monday line-up we love to see.

Just after sunset, the room takes on a different mood. The edges soften, the pace of the day eases and candlelight brings a quiet warmth to everything around it.

Our African Nights collection is inspired by the vast African sky — Stars, Galaxy, Nightfall and Milkyway, each one carved by hand into a natural ostrich eggshell.

For nights in, unhurried conversations and homes that feel lived in.

Nature’s gentle geometry.

There is a quiet comfort in an oval form: soft, harmonious and free from sharp edges.

In interiors, organic curves are often associated with biophilic design, bringing a sense of calm and connection to the natural world into the home.

It is one of the many reasons we are drawn to the ostrich egg — elegant, grounding and beautifully formed by nature.

Bring a little Natural African Luxury into your home.
