Textile 1(pics 1-3) Rare and collectible textile. Made of long finely woven narrow strips of natural indigo ikat tightly woven The cloth itself is a strong indigo color with an orange band on the bottom. Every row has a hand tied knot on both ends. Measures 41 inches wide x 59 inches long The closest example I can find was on a museum site( ... moreThe Textile Museum) The site states the following: Created in the mid 20 th century in the Ivory Coast. This wrap cloth’s extraordinary rich patterns suggests it was worn by someone of high rank, probably a chief, and for special occasions. The Guro use heddles to create the supplementary weft float patterns on long narrow strip looms. The intense color was achieved by repeatedly dipping the threads in indigo dye. As was common in West Africa. The red strip would have been worn towards the bottom, while the rest was wrapped around the body and passed over the left shoulder. Textile 2(pic 4) made of long finely woven narrow strips dyed indigo. It is a light weave. There are 6 stripes of fabric crudely sewn together.

And then traveling. ... moreFrom the publisher: This book is the most comprehensive pictorial survey available of the African arts of textile design and personal adornment. The textiles and ornaments presented in this volume were selected from more than 2.400 examples photographed in some 70 public and private collections in North America. Included are photographs of costumes. Headdresses and hair styles, jewelry and personal utensils, and decorative scarification and painting of the body. The examples demonstrate how cultural traditions. Relying on formal inventiveness in combination with often rudimentary technical means, can achieve a remarkably beautiful and varied subtlety of pattern, color, and design. The texts. Written by the noted authority Roy Sieber, are object-oriented discussions which also explain the social context of the works examined. Highlights include: tunic. Trousers, and hat with applique and embroidery, Fon, Dahomey Senegal war dress batakari war dress. Covered with amulets containing words from the Koran, Akan, Ghana hunter's dress from the Dan-Ngere.
