In the century-old iron and steel works building, Pilgrim & Crown sells a range of crafts including Umjindi's stunning silver jewellery. Umjindi's flagship range is inspired by the painted rocks of late local artist Nukain Mabuza; you can pick up a ring for R300. In the neighbouring workshop, you can see Umjindi's team of seven Swazi artists at work.
