Ceramics fit for a King
During the Covid pandemic we were asked by the organisers of the feature film, The Woman King, to create beautiful wheel thrown pots in rich terracotta that they assembled into window screens for their “Great Hall”. Much to their delight, two of our staff were also included in the film shoot as extras!
Once fired, the pots were assembled into long lines kept in place with stainless steel poles pushed through holes in their bases and tops. These stainless steel poles were then attached into the three window frames.
The Great Hall is an exquisite space furnished with unique African style decor that wouldn’t be out of place in an upmarket game lodge!
Zizamele also made a range of traditional looking “Japanese porcelain” in blue and white that was to be broken in a Kung Fu style fight in a different movie.
Minibus Taxis
Zizamele was asked to create 6 mini bus taxis out of clay for the “Blue Dot” Taxi association as end of year gifts.
We created exact replicas of the original taxi; from the number plates and bright colours along the back, to the taxi's unique “serial number” on its side.
Vince Van der Byl and Masi Sports
People in the South know that ex Springbok cricketer Vince Van der Bijl is very involved in sports development. He created a foundation called Masisports to bring about change and raise funds for the children at local schools.
Vince has designed his own 8-lady bowl to use as a “Speakers and Sponsors” gift. It comprises a variety of 8 local Women of Africa and is painted in various neutral tones and black & white. We are proud to say that so far he has given these to the likes of Peter Hain, Scarra Ntubeni and Allan Winde.
SARB celebrates Heritage Day
Zizamele produced 200 of our popular 2-lady bowls in various shades of blue, as well as beautiful white oil burners for the SA Reserve Bank.
We have done numerous orders with Geskenk for the corporate sector. Our 2-lady tiny bowl is highly favoured for these orders!
