The story of Fairview Farm is a captivating journey through time, dating back to its establishment in 1693 as a working farm. A significant milestone occurred in 1699 when the first recorded evidence of wine production graced this historic estate.
Fairview has, over the centuries, forged a remarkable reputation for excellence in both wine and cheese production. Of particular note is their pioneering cheese factory, celebrated as the African continent's inaugural Carbon Neutral Cheesery, an accolade that truly sets them apart.
We're excited to contribute to Fairview’s enchanting tasting room, deli and Goatshed restaurant with our beautifully handwoven basket lampshades. These lampshades are a harmonious addition to the already captivating ambiance of this wonderful destination.
The Goatshed
The Goatshed, Fairview's restaurant, offers delectable farm-style comfort cuisine in a charming setting that harmoniously melds contemporary art with antique elements.
We're proud to say that their divine restaurant, is adorned with various Ashanti Design shades. A testament to the power of collaboration and partnership, we must first acknowledge that none of this would have been made possible without the exceptional creative vision of Xperiencemakers Interior Architecture and Design Studio.
Within the establishment, they have artfully crafted captivating vignettes, such as the inviting corner that greets you upon your initial entry. Here, you'll find an elegant Bopah lampshade, and a glimpse of our Stari lampshades gracing the veranda in the distance:
