Ncedo
Ncedo, meaning assistance or support in isiZulu, captures the spirit of guidance and shared knowledge, reminiscent of the role played by big brothers in our lives. The Ncedo frames are dedicated to those who have been our pillars of strength and wisdom — always there to share and guide. A design that speaks to the comfort and assurance provided by those we look up to.

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.
