01 / Who we are

Crafted in Accra, since 2000

Accents & Arts Limited was founded in 2000 by Constance E. Swaniker. It began as a sole proprietorship and became a registered limited liability company in 2009.

Our team of skilled artisans works to global standards of quality and craftsmanship. We are known for a wide range of traditional and contemporary designs, premium finishes and dependable service, and we work with homeowners, architects, interior designers and construction professionals, meeting their organisational, scheduling and quality requirements. From Accra, we make for clients across Ghana, Africa and beyond.

25 years of projects, from intricate sculpture and ornamental work to robust industrial structures.

Modern machinery, including CNC bending and laser cutting, lets us deliver ambitious projects with precision.

One team works with you from the first sketch to installation, so every detail is looked after.

Tradition and technique

Traditional craftsmanship combined with modern methods, for pieces that feel both timeless and current.

03 / What we make

Three disciplines, one workshop

Craft, art and design

Craft

Functional pieces made by hand, from lighting to furniture, where the making shows in every joint.

Art

Sculpture and statement pieces in welded metal and other materials, rooted in our founder’s training as a sculptor.

Design

Screens, gates and interiors designed around your space, then cut, formed and finished in our workshop.

Accra, Ghana

Inside our workshop

Our team works with you from concept to completion, pairing traditional craftsmanship with modern machinery. That range runs from intricate sculpture and ornamental work, through bespoke furniture and architectural features, to durable industrial components built for heavy use.

Everything is made under one roof, so design, fabrication and finishing stay in the same hands from start to finish.

05 / Quality control

Our quality control process

Five stages, each with its own checks, so you know what is happening and roughly how long it takes.

Stage 1

Brief and consultation

We listen, visit the site where needed and agree what success looks like.

Stage 2 / Up to 2 weeks

Final design and specifications

Drawings and technical details are finalised so production has a clear plan.

Stage 3 / Up to 3 days

Raw materials

We source and check quality materials before any cutting begins.

Stage 4 / Depends on scope

Production

Welding, carpentry and spraying in our workshop, with checks at each stage.

Stage 5

Quality check and installation

A final inspection, then delivery and installation on site.

06 / Our values and standards

What we stand for

Precision quality

Measured, checked and finished to the drawing.

Design innovation

New forms and materials, not repeat patterns.

On time delivery

Clear timelines agreed before work begins.

Workforce safety

A safe workshop for every maker, every day.

Safety and standards

Our health and safety routine is part of how the workshop runs, not a poster on the wall.

07 / Who we work with

Industries we serve

Homes and interiors

Furniture, lighting, gates and decor for homeowners, interior designers and architects, made to fit each room.

Real estate and industrial

Gates, railings and feature metalwork for residential and commercial developments.

Accents and Art is an outstanding metal manufacturer that has truly redefined the concept of furniture and gates in Ghana.
