Hanjari
Hanjari
Hanjari is the Swahili word for ‘Dagger’
There are some sharp edges hidden in the pattern for this beautiful ball.
The ball itself is perfectly round and ready for play, though.
Every Hanjari Ball is made by hand in Kenya.
The pattern is silk-screen printed onto locally sourced leather.
Every panel is stitched by hand by our highly skilled staff – who all receive a fair wage in order to support their families.
