Two designs in my "African Calligraphy" card set (total of 10). These two come from the Bantu in South Africa. They are brightly colored and carry special meaning.

Other African scripts in this card set include Adinkra (Ghana). Set II will include Bantu, Adinkra, Nsbidi (Nigeria) and the Bamum syllabary (Cameroon).
