About Te-Gami

Te-Gami (Pty) Ltd is a handcrafted apparel and accessories brand based in Somerset West, South Africa. We design and produce screen-printed tote bags, t-shirts, origami earrings, and mizuhiki earrings inspired by Japanese aesthetics.


Products

Handmade nature

All Te-Gami products are handcrafted. As a result, minor variations in print placement, colour, and finish are inherent to the process and are part of the product's character — not defects.

Product descriptions

We make every effort to display product colours and details accurately. However, colours may vary slightly depending on your device's screen calibration.

Availability

All products are subject to availability. We reserve the right to discontinue any product at any time without notice.
