From Wikipedia: This type of cloth came to being in the late 1960s and early 1970s and remains popular with tourists and urban Ivorians today. Eager to sustain Senufo traditions and help expand the local market, American Peace Corps volunteers encouraged the people to explore new means of clothing production. Fila cloth consisted of six stripes of cotton cloth that had been sewn Togetherand served as the prototype for which korhogo was built upon. Fila is mostly decorated with hand painted stripes as its primary motif and zigzag designs symbolic of the leopard.To preserve fila\'s traditional characteristics, Korhogo cloth producers continued to use hand spun cotton strips woven by their Dyulaneighbors. However, unlike fila, Korhogo cloth quickly became the canvas onto which cloth producers painted a large variety of imagery derived from the local society and culture. The earliest examples of Korhogo cloth have fila strips which were used as the grid where visual motifs would be painted.When the Grahams had coveted the cloth by the early 1980s, the Senufo cloth makers had abandoned the strips and used the entire cloth to frame the painted motifs.Terms: Normal time to ship istwo days after payment is received.
