About Dsenyo

Dsenyo is a social enterprise.  We believe business is a powerful way to address social and economic problems. Countless challenges confront creative people in Malawi, Africa as they try to build their businesses, practice their craft & support their families. 

After living in Malawi, artist Marissa Perry Saints founded Dsenyo to create opportunity for hard-working, African women and artisans.  Dsenyo offers hand-crafted bags and accessories that celebrate African textile design.  We follow Fair Trade principles working to create maximum benefit for the women, artisans & communities in which we work.

I carry the wristlet in jade and gold when I am out for quick errands or when I am going out and don't need a full purse.  It's the perfect size for credit cards, cash, cell phone and keys.  My Dsenyo wristlet also fits perfectly in my hobo bag and I use it as a wallet.
