Artisan Information

Agnes Amponsah

Shop all Agnes Amponsah products

My name is Agnes Amponsah and I was born in Eastern Ghana in 1947. My friends say I'm fair, honest and respectful.

Since 1996, I've been a wood carver. I was taught at the art center in Accra and have passed on my lessons to others. My involvement in this art is a family inheritance. My sister had a workshop, which I took over after she died.

"My sister's workshop always reminded me of her, so I eventually started on my own in a humble venture. With time and hard work, I was able to expand my workshop.

"I love seeing how attractive and portable my carvings can be. My most difficult moment in life was when I had to go to Mankesim in Central Ghana but I was in a car accident that hurt my leg and left me needing a walking stick.

"I'm inspired by my children, who push me to work harder, and seeing them succeed in life is my greatest desire."

NOVICA was started with a dream to create a better world for artisans, because a better world for artisans is a better world for all.

Along the way, the founders of NOVICA discovered something very important - as artisans around the world succeeded, there was also a visible and profound impact on the communities around them.

Your purchases are that powerful. They directly and indirectly provide for education, help with health care, fund basic needs, support children, preserve disappearing arts, and of course, spread happiness around the world.

The founders of NOVICA had a vision of the future that is not one of mega factories producing cookie cutter products for all to cheaply consume. Instead, a bright future that celebrates artisans who take the time to create an item by hand. A future where time is protected, where stories are told, where unique details are honored. Love, respect, inclusiveness become driving force.
