    Tribal Textiles, based in South Luangwa, Zambia is making some very nice and original cloth. There’s a shop in Blantyre that has some of their textiles: La Caverna in Mandala House.

    Mandala House is one of the oldest buildings in Blantyre, built by the Moir brothers in 1878. The library of the Society of Malawi is located in the first floor of the same building.
