From intricate wooden masks and statues that carry ancestral meanings, to beautifully crafted baskets, pottery, and vibrant textiles, Angolan crafts reflect the identity, beliefs, and history of its many ethnic groups. Each piece tells a story — whether it’s linked to spiritual rituals, daily life, or community celebrations.

Markets and artisan fairs across the country showcase this creativity, where handmade objects are more than souvenirs — they are symbols of a living culture passed down through generations.
