This 'Woman size' cloth, measuring 56" (142 cm) x 41" (104 cm), is a vibrant showcase of West African artistry and a prized possession for any collector. Cloth Features: Quality: The cloth is handwoven on a horizontal treadle loom, a testament to the ancient weaving traditions that trace back to the Ashanti kingdom, symbolizing the creativity and heritage of the Baule people. Condition: Preserved in very good condition, this cloth from the 1970s bears minor stains and wear, indicative of its rich history and use in daily life. Cultural Significance: The Baule cloth, often featured in significant life events such as weddings and funerals, serves as a canvas for creative expression, with patterns that convey cultural themes and tell stories of unity and spirituality. The Weaving Artistry: Woven on narrow strip looms, the strips are carefully stitched together to create larger textiles. This complex process involves vibrant colors, natural dyes, and hand-spun cotton, highlighting the weavers' skill and precision. Contemporary Relevance: While deeply rooted in tradition, Baule cloth remains relevant, inspiring contemporary African artists and fashion designers. The global demand for these textiles sustains economic livelihoods and celebrates the enduring legacy of the Baule people.For customers with multiple orders, we combine shipping and handling charges.
