Manqoba
Manqoba — to conquer. A frame for those who overcome, from the Sewula Umlambo collection. Hand-finished in genuine buffalo horn, each frame carries its own natural grain — no two pairs are alike.
Specifications
- Frame material: genuine buffalo horn — unique natural patterning on every frame
- Lenses: photochromic (non-polarised) — the tint adapts automatically to changing light
- UV400 protection on all lenses
- Nose bridge: 19–24 mm, varies by frame
- Designed in Johannesburg, handcrafted in Japan
The Story
Part of the Lombia continuum — Akuyona eyokuqala, futhi akuyona yokugcina — “not the first, and not the last.” Each frame carries ancestral craft into a contemporary silhouette, made to be worn, kept and passed on.
