It’s one thing to see hand-made African objects on our website, but it’s a whole different thing to see them in person. That’s exactly why we created the Wanderlane Pop-Up experience. Each of these amazing pieces tell a story and we’d love to share them with you. Join us for a fantastic evening full of good conversation, South African wines, music and carefully curated collection of artisanal and one of a kind collectibles.
Wander with us
We wander in search of inspirational stories of communities, collectives, and individuals that make an impact on a personal level, a familiar level and a communal level. Every product sold with help support these masterful global artisans and their rapidly disappearing craft, whilst impacting their lives and their communities.

Our Story
Tracy Marsh Hoffman & Ian Murrough had an idea. Founders of the LA based Creative Agency HDF.LA, decided it was time to embark on a long held passion project, one that would continue to take them on creative adventures around the world, while giving back to the local artisans and their communities along the way.
Our advertising adventures have taken us to man exotic and wonderful places & on these journeys, we have always sought out the local guides location scouting and producing these incredible photoshoots for fashion and lifestyle brands, some of our most memorable moments have been the hunt for those super special, unique, handcrafted items locally sourced, whether it be in a souk in Marrakesh or by a reclusive ceramicist tucked away in his mountain studio in Santorini.
Loving every minute of these moments, meeting these makers & discovering their artistry. The pleasure continues as we bring these amazing treasured pieces back home to share with our friends and families and collectively experience these finds honoring centuries old traditions in a thoroughly modern way, in our homes and creative spaces.
They invited Ian’s brother John Murrough, fashion designer and passionate collector, to join them.
The Wanderlane was born.
