Hand-Painted Ghana Barber Sign - "Vida Hair Saloon"

This vibrant and authentic Hand-Painted Ghana shop sign titled "Vida Hair Saloon" is a striking example of African folk art used to advertise local barbershops. Painted with oil on plywood, this artwork captures the bold and colorful style typical of Ghana barber signs.

  • Width: 21 3/4 inches (55 cm)
  • Height: 15 1/4 inches (38 cm)

The sign shows typical wear consistent with its original outdoor use. Expect character-enhancing elements like scratches, small areas of paint loss, and visible repairs. These details reflect the authentic, utilitarian roots of this piece as a working signboard in Ghana.

What Are Ghana Shop Signs?

Hand-painted Ghana shop signs are a celebrated visual tradition in West Africa. Each sign is crafted by local artists using oil paint on wood, often customized to showcase the services of small businesses such as barbershops, salons, herbal clinics, and general goods stores. These signs are not only advertising tools but powerful cultural artifacts that blend art with everyday life.

In Ghana, these signboards serve to both attract customers and reflect the identity of the business owner. Every sign tells a story — through colors, caricatures, and typography — showcasing the pride and entrepreneurial spirit of local tradespeople. Their uniqueness and handmade character have made them highly collectible pieces of African folk art worldwide.
