About Us
OUR HISTORY
House of Soapstone Designers is a family-owned business that has been crafting beautiful, high-quality soapstone products for over three generations. Their journey began in the heart of Kenya’s Kisii region, where the family matriarch, would spend her days carving soapstone figurines and selling them at the local market.
With time, the family’s passion for soapstone carving grew into a full-time business. They began by making small items like figurines and paperweights, but soon expanded to larger pieces such as vases, lamps, and even countertops. Today, House of Soapstone Designers is one of the leading producers of soapstone products in East Africa, with a loyal customer base that spans the globe.
What sets House of Soapstone Designers apart is their commitment to quality and craftsmanship. Each piece is hand-carved by skilled artisans who have honed their craft over many years. The soapstone used by the business is sourced from local quarries that are carefully selected to ensure consistency and quality.
