Aubrey Botha

We build and create through nurturing, and nurturing starts with kindness.

NAKAO means to lead with fair judgment, and to create with the ultimate refined skill and craftsmanship.

We serve humanity by using our given talents, and with combined efforts, we can truly build something new that revolves around kindness and harmony.

Aubrey Botha heads up NAKAO, a small leathercraft studio that handcrafts accessories and undertakes custom designs by commission.

He also contracts to a bronze foundry in Johannesburg, where he is exploring and evolving sculpture and casting procedures.
