About Us

Welcome to SumArt, where creativity meets craftsmanship, and every piece tells a story.

Our Inspiration

SumArt is a collaborative challenge, inspired by our creative mom, Anneri, and the
married couple Niel and Maretha. We value simplicity,
elegance, agelessness, and minimalism. What better way to combine these standards
than to create bespoke leather products that stand the test of time? Your item is the resemblance of simplicity, showcasing your style. Leather will always be a timeless fashion statement.

The Birth of SumArt

SumArt was unknowingly born during a transformative summer holiday in 2017. It was during this time that our family discovered their shared creative spirit through leather crafting. To this day, Mom carries a wallet lovingly crafted by our brother, Louwrens - a tangible reminder of the
enduring memories that leather evokes. From humble beginnings to our expansive
warehouse in George, the SumArt journey stands as a testament to dedication and
passion.

Our Commitment

Guided by Anneri's oversight, every aspect of production - sourcing fine full-grain leather, design, quality control, transferring her skills to local
artisans – is executed with care and attention to detail.

Our Vision

Our vision evolved from materialising our “standards” to creating opportunities
for local artisans. In the process, we empower you to personalise your creative
item. With a palette of six leather colours and engraving options, you can
transform our products into unique gifts or cherished keepsakes.

Why SumArt

The “sum of” or sigma symbol (Σ) allows mathematicians to express the total of a sequence or series. In our context, it serves as the final expression—a result of thoughtful design considerations and the time invested in creating a single
leather masterpiece.

SumArt is the perfect combination of words explaining the competencies of the team. From an engineering perspective, we design and build with functionality in mind. From an artist’s perspective we design and create with beauty in mind. SumArt is the collaboration of engineers and artists, resulting in the true Sum of Art.
