A collection of fine African antiques

Dear $email,

an interview with Jones & Key African Artifacts for sale Kenya- East Africa.

How did you come to deal African art?

Songye Power Figure

Jones: We both come from families whom have been in Africa for generations collecting artifacts. My family came as missionaries from the United States, spending the majority of this time in East and Central Africa.

Key: My time in Africa is quite different from Jones, as my family came to be the first to facilitate trade between Asia and the East African region. Much art was being discovered during this time, and with connections with those in power much was accessible and continues to be.

The general consensus is that there are no original and old pieces left in Africa. What do you think about this?

This is not true. Having lived in Africa for long we have connections to ex-colonial and expatriate families that have been living in Africa for generations buying African artifacts from a century ago.

This explains the provenance for our pieces, unless coming from major collections in Europe, we usually do not mention by name as this is still an important source, though they are renown families in the East and Central African region. Perhaps in the future we will start adding
the names of these families.

We also get pieces coming from missionary camps that are still located deep in the African bush - once in a while top quality pieces still come out and we are in a good position to acquire them.

Recognized dealers from Europe still come to Africa to buy what is available in this exclusive market - but we would rather not mention any specific names.

Your website also has information on the African Culture and on African tribes, why do you do this?

Besides collecting African art, we are very passionate about the African culture and the African tribes. Many are disappearing, and information on them is generally hard to come by. Being in East Africa and having many resources available to us, we feel it is our duty to contribute to the preservation of the African cultures.

As we grow we will have more and more articles on African culture and tribes - so stay tuned!
