This unique African Congo Kuba Raffia Cloth Fabric is a true treasure for collectors and anyone interested in African cultures. Among the Kuba people, the appliqué designs created abstract geometric shapes. The textiles were worn as skirts wrapped around their hips for ceremonial dances. The warm harmonies of color tones turn these fabrics into abstract works of art. These richly decorated cloths took a considerable amount of time to create, as they were hand-woven, stitched & dyed. Due to the fact that they were labor-intensive to create, they are highly prized by collectors. The men would weave panels on a loom, while the women decorated the cloth with an endless variety of applied decorative geometric patterns.

Handmade using natural materials, this beautiful textile showcases the traditional craftsmanship of the Kuba people. The intricate weaving and patterns on this cloth are a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the Congolese people. Perfect for display or use in home decor, this piece is a one-of-a-kind item that will surely add character to any space. Don\'t miss out on the opportunity to own a piece of African history.
