  • Handmade in Joburg. Beautiful shot shared by @44_stanleyavenue of @sirkeljewellery’s Jan Bekker at work #Repost @44_stanleyavenue ・・・ We believe that understanding the skill and craftsmanship that goes into something you buy makes it far more special. ⠀ ⠀ We spent some time with Jan Bekker inside his workshop at @sirkeljewellery and loved watching the process. Our timing was perfect as it happened to be a day that a loyal client came to fetch a ring that Jan had just finished. The ring was incredibly detailed, completely over-the-top and had taken 100's of hours of work to complete. But most importantly it could not have been more perfect for the client. ⠀ ⠀ We now know why Jan's customers are seldom one-offs and why they entrust him to make or remake their most special jewellery.⠀ ⠀ P.S. If you want to see the ring - check out @sirkeljewellery 's most recent insta post and no we won’t tell you who the client is.. ⠀ 📸 @robyndaviecreative #44stanley #southafrica #johannesburginyourpocket #shopping #africa #handmade #joburg #johannesburg

  • The amazing Turbine Hall in Newtown, venue of the @turbineartfair which will take place on July 12-15. Every time we visit we can’t help but marvel at the successful reinvention of the city’s former power station into exceptional venue spaces curated by @theforumcompany - who served what must be the best breakfast ever! at today’s media launch. Such an exciting programme of talks, installations, artworks and artists. This is the fair that is defined by a focus on emerging artists so affordability is top of mind for curators. Watch out the for the fantastic Irma Stern project by @strauss_and_co who have worked with art schools, @artistproofjhb and @openwindowinstitute to interpret classic still lifes. A great place to start your art collection. #artcity #turbinehall #newtown #johannesburg #johannesburginyourpocket #southafrica #africa #emergingartist #rmbturbineartfair2018

  • One of our favourite Joburg city buildings - part of the city’s mining heritage. Nearby, along Commissioner St, is the marvelous @bridgebooks where you’ll find your latest copy of Johannesburg In Your Pocket magazine. We had to share that :) #Repost @block20_property ・・・ Corner House Commissioned by Sir Ernest Oppenheimer (father of the legendary Harry Oppenheimer), the Corner House was once the tallest building in Johannesburg! #architecture #cityscape #johannesburg #joburg #discoverjoburg #southafrica #africa
