Our Story
About Moonarts
The Founder
Pharel Murimi
A passionate and innovative fashion designer based in Nairobi, Kenya, with a strong foundation in both technical design and creative vision. His journey began with a deep appreciation for sustainable practices — a commitment to creating leather goods and garments that are not only beautiful but ethically sound.
Specialising in menswear, Pharel has a distinctive ability to blend classic tailoring with modern, street-inspired elements. His proficiency in leather work, particularly bag making, is the cornerstone of Moonarts — where every stitch tells a story of quality and intention.
At Moonarts, each piece is a testament to meticulous craftsmanship and thoughtful design. From hand-selected leather to precision finishing, every creation is built to last a lifetime.
