Why use a coaster?
Coasters are great as decoratives, but the real purpose is way more than just being a decorative piece. They protect the surface of a table or any other surface where the drink is placed.
Beverage coasters are necessary when you place your hot or cold drink on that beautiful furniture. The condensation from the drink can stain and ruin your table.
Shop our beautiful Ardmore Coasters, they make beautiful ADVENT and CHRISTMAS gift

No animal has a more distinctive coat than the zebra. Each animal's stripes are as unique as fingerprints—no two are exactly alike.

The story of Anna Rosholt Jewellery
All the Jewellery is made in a small studio in Cape Town and her jewels are designed to celebrate her home continent, (which is also Linda’s home continent) and the magical stories and creatures that form the beating heart of this magical place on earth.
Anna prides herself on her high skill level and knowledge of the materials that she works with together with an uncompromising attention to detail – this ensures that each piece that leaves the workshop is of premium quality and exquisite finishing.
The belief is in ‘slow’ jewellery so that each piece is made with individual attention and care – like a tiny work of art.
Anna studied her craft at Stellenbosch University and is a friend of Linda’s daughter Catherine who also studied at Stellenbosch – a truly beautiful part of South Africa and a world renowned University with a long tradition of excellence.
Anna also works on custom orders for both men and woman such as engagement rings, wedding bands and signet rights and any and all wonderfully personal and luxurious pieces made to last forever.
Anna’s brand motif is the iconic South African DUNG BEETLE these are incredibly strong, tenacious and beautiful beetles, some of whom can move over 1000 times their weight.
What makes L’Afrika’s Collection No.1 so special?
L’Afrika’s Collection No.1, Ardmore, is a thriving artist community creating unique ceramics in the KwaZulu-Natal Midlands of South Africa. The studio was founded by Fée Halsted in 1985 when she moved to a remote farm in the foothills of the Drakensberg Mountains and began teaching local people how to model and paint pottery. Originally Fée worked with Bonnie Ntshalintshali, the daughter of the farmers housekeeper. They quickly developed a creative synergy and their collaboration drew national attention when they won the prestigious Standard Bank Young Artist award in 1990. Soon Bonnie’s family and friends were drawn to Ardmore to learn from Fée and earn a living creating ceramic art.
There are now more than 60 Zulu and Zimbabwean artists working in collaboration at Ardmore under Fee’s guidance. Two or three artists are involved in each piece, which is individually thrown on the potters wheel, modelled and hand painted. Each piece is unique, and masterpieces can take several months to complete. Energetic movement, intricate detailing and vibrant colour defines the Ardmore aesthetic. Safari animals burst with life from luxuriant foliage to form quirky vases, candlesticks, tureens and teapots. There are also exciting forms of sculptural art based on Zulu folklore and tribal traditions. The sale of these wonderful works uplifts and supports the Ardmore community and their families as the artists are paid per piece and have a guaranteed market for their endeavours
Since 2010, the fantasy world of Ardmore has been translated into a range of fabric designs, which have been made into tablecloths, napkins and runners. Stylish ladies handbags featuring the flora and fauna of Africa have been followed by sophisticated silk scarves by Hermes, the luxury French design house. The ideas of a new generation are now making an impact at Ardmore with Fee’s children Jonathan, Catherine and Megan Berning working with young sculptors and painters, including children of the original Ardmore artists.
Linda's Afrika
The Brand of L’Afrika draws its roots from Linda’s Afrika. Linda arrived in Hamburg 3 years ago and after settling down for two years began the story of bringing in Divine Design from unique creative designers in South Africa. Each collection is considered exceptional and the emphasis is on modern elegance.
Linda loves her homeland and presents these fine works from this great continent with pride and joy.
