About Us
The World is Full of Beautiful Things. We Bring Them to You.
The Philosophy Gift-giving is a language. It’s how we say "I love you," "I appreciate you," or "I’m thinking of you." But somewhere along the way, gifting became a chore. We found ourselves staring at generic aisles in big-box stores, settling for mass-produced items that lacked soul.
We knew there had to be a better way to give.
The Meaning Behind the Name Our name, Zawadee, is inspired by the Swahili word for "Gift." To us, a gift isn't just an object; it's a connection. It’s a bridge between the hands that made it and the hands that receive it.
What We Do Zawadee is your passport to a global marketplace of over 60,000 unique treasures. We have spent years building relationships with suppliers, artisans, and creators around the world to build a catalog worth over $1 billion.
From intricate wood carvings from the heart of Africa to modern sustainable decor for a city apartment, to collectibles we curate the "hard-to-find" so you don’t have to.
