About Us
Zashadu is a leading British / Nigerian sustainable luxury brand, that specializes in hand-crafted leather pieces.
We work with local sustainably sourced, and Upcycled leathers. All our pieces are created at our workspace in Lagos, Nigeria, by a team that benefits from traditional techniques passed down through generations by a community of local artisans. At Zashadu we love to explore the tension between quiet elegance and unabashed glamour. We avoid the use of superfluous fittings and fixtures in order to give precedence to the leathers.
Zashadu is a reparative brand with sustainability at its core; We restore the ecosystem by alchemizing waste leather into collectible pieces.
