Adinkra Symbols


 “Speak with the language of love” ~ Rumi

Just Love products feature Adinkra symbols, an ancient African language that speaks to all that unites us ~ a gift from the Asante people.

The Adinkra symbols reflect a system of human values that are universal such as family, integrity, harmony, tolerance and love. The Just Love Adinkra renditions were created by Jean MacDonald who is working to revive this beautiful language and helping to educate others about the beauty and appreciation of these symbols and their ancient language.
