CARROL BOYES FUNCTIONAL ART is a manufacturing company specializing in innovative, contemporary designs for the kitchen and home. With our emphasis on "functional art" , we produce a variety of distinctive and uniquely South African items that are both useful and beautiful to own.
Carrol Boyes Functional Art currently designs and manufactures a Pewter, Aluminum and Stainless Steel range of more than 2000 exclusive lifestyle products. Carrol Boyes permforms the initial design of all the products from her Cape Town Studio, after which most designs are sent to the company's own manufacturing facility, located in the Northern Province, South Africa. On Completion, all finished articles are returned to the Cape Town Head office where a final quality control check is performed. Once the quality control process has been completed, the final product is packed and shipped to the designated local and international markets. This comprises the largest part of the collection and includes unusual cutlery, flatware, tableware and gifts. Pewter (which is lead-free), an alloy of antimony, copper and tin, is used on its own or in combination with stainless steel or spun aluminium to create unique and aesthetically pleasing sculptures for everyday use in the home. In order to keep the collection dynamic, we continuously add new items and update designs. From time to time we produce a limited edition item, which has proved very popular with collectors.
