Unfortunately, many gifted Namibian crafters are working away at their beautiful wares in small workshops far from the public and possible customers. One of our favourites is pottery expert Vistorina, who is operating her business Gwaitalale Pottery from a shack in Katutura. You'll probably never manage to find it, but be assured that Vistorina will find you. With her entrepreneurial spirit and bottomless energy she has managed to make her mark well beyond Goreangab Dam and now sends off her mugs, bowls and plates to businesses around Namibia. Que Tapas serve their delicious meals in Gwaitalale stoneware, as does traditional restaurant Xwama. Orders have recently even come in from as far as Ongwediva. And the best thing is, you can choose from her own signature range or simply order custom-designed pieces to match your particular style.
