Craft Village
(Visit Craft Village's Website)
Craft Village is a small business based in
England. With the artisans of Kisii
Tabaka, Western Kenya, we have been
developing our unique sculptures and
nurturing this project since 2004.
Recognizing the skill and talent of the
Kisii carvers, Craft Village identified
the need for a new outlook in terms of
design. A progression from the
traditional soapstone statues saturating
the market.
Training rural Kenyan craftsmen to sculpt
caricatures of cartoon characters, and
introducing new production techniques and
quality control methods, Craft Village
have secured approval from 20th Century
Fox and achieved an exclusive license to
produce and sell our Simpsons sculptures.
We are proud to be in a position to supply
Simpsons fans with new, high quality,
unique, animation art, whilst
simultaneously having a positive economic
impact in rural Kenya.
