South Africa’s beloved home linen brand, Volpes, has opened its brand-new flagship store in Johannesburg’s Kramerville décor and design district — and it’s everything a home enthusiast could dream of. The store brings together local craftsmanship, timeless design, and modern innovation, creating an inspiring space for anyone looking to elevate their home.
Founded in 1929, Volpes has been made by South Africans, for South Africans, for nearly a century. Every product — from bedding and pillows to curtains and towels — is proudly locally made, supporting South African manufacturing and showcasing exceptional homegrown quality.
With over 80 stores nationwide, Volpes has long been known as South Africa’s Home of Linen, offering a wide selection of bedding and home décor essentials that combine comfort, quality, and style.
The new Kramerville store isn’t just a retail space — it’s a destination for décor inspiration. The layout invites customers to explore, plan, and play with ideas. A digital shopping experience allows visitors to browse the entire Volpes range via touchscreen displays, while sample stations and workspaces help decorators and homeowners plan their next project. There’s even a coffee corner to take it all in at a slower pace.
“Kramerville has long been a hub for designers and decorators in Johannesburg, conveniently accessible from both Pretoria and Johannesburg via major highways,” says Elbé Truter, Head of Merchandising at Volpes. “We are thrilled to bring Volpes to this inspiring district, providing a home for our customers to explore, plan, and create.”
Volpes understands that everyone’s definition of comfort is unique. Their bedding range includes different thread counts to suit every preference — from crisp, cool cotton to silky-smooth sateens. Pillows and inners come in both feather and fibre options, available in a variety of sizes, so every sleeper can find their perfect match.
Beyond the bedroom, the brand also offers luxurious bathroom towels, ready-made curtains, and decorative accessories to complete your home with ease and elegance.
The flagship store also showcases South Africa’s largest range of ready-made curtains, as well as custom window solutions including rods, accessories, and faux wood blinds. With expertly trained staff ready to offer tailored advice, Volpes ensures that every visitor leaves inspired to create a home that feels both beautiful and personal.
The new Kramerville flagship represents more than a store — it’s a celebration of South African design, craftsmanship, and comfort.

It’s that time of year when thanking the team for all that they delivered is critical.

Tucked within the exclusive Korhaan River Estate, where fewer than 30 families share in the quiet luxury of open skies, river breeze and uninterrupted privacy, this remarkable property brings country living to life with elegance, intention, and a touch of soul.
Set along the gentle Leeuspruit River — just a short flow from the mighty Vaal — the estate unfolds across 70,500m² of manicured grounds, three shimmering dams, and sweeping lawns made for unhurried afternoons. It’s the kind of setting where mornings begin with birdsong and evenings settle beneath a canopy of stars — whether as a permanent sanctuary or a sophisticated weekend retreat from city rush.
