The Karoo collection is Okapi's first fine jewellery collection comprised of our signature Springbok Horn, an African talismanic charm believed to bring good luck to those who wear it. The springbok horns are prepared by hand and polished by local artisans in the Karoo region. The opening pendant takes inspiration from traditional African healers known as Sangoma who would carry herbs to wade off negative energy within the springbok horn. **This product is Made to Order. Please allow 6-8 weeks for your order to be handmade by our artisans.
About Springbok Horn
The springbok horn is an African talismanic charm which is believed across Africa to bring good luck to those who wear it. Okapi’s expert artisans craft each individual horn making each signature piece completely unique. Okapi is strongly guided by the African philosophy of Ubuntu ‘I am because we are’. This means that we strive to incorporate social upliftment into our production practices. The majority of Okapi’s materials including the springbok horn are sourced as by-product of established farming practices. By incorporating the springbok horns into the products, Okapi is taking what would be waste in order to create sustainable jobs on the African continent.
