  Lovely place to see how clay is turned into beautiful ornaments and other stuff. There's a free guided tour, just don't go at 10:20 ish coz that's when they have their break. Earlier or later works. I would suggest you take a factory tour before buying so you can see all the steps it took to make the beautiful stuff.

  This is an amazing place in many ways, starting from the idea of bringing single mothers together to make a living from crafts. I visited with a group of about 60 children and the women were very patient with us. They took time out from their work and explained how they make their jewellery and clay products. The even let the children make some jewellery. Kazuri encourages visits and has a guide ready to explain things to you and take you around. When you're done with the tour, you can visit their little shop and spoil yourself with some new jewellery.

  You have to see this! Do the free factory tour and see these amazing ladies producing beautiful work. Then the Kazuri factory shop has every necklace you have ever dreamed of. We needed a specific colour combination and it wasn't to much trouble for them to make it especially in a few minutes.

  Amazing place. I highly recommend! We took the free tour and the guide was great. Especially with our kids. The beads and jewellery are beautiful and the diversity of the designs ensures something for everyone. We purchased both pottery and jewellery - and decorations for the Christmas tree :-)

  Very welcoming and cheerful guides. They will tell you how the company was founded, its purpose, and the process of making beads. It’s a short tour but interesting to see. The tour is free but the company is supported via jewelry sales. Although some say the jewelry is overpriced, I think the prices are justified because your money is going much further than just the materials and labour of the item you purchased.
