Description

This striking hand-woven Kente cloth is an authentic West African textile created within the revered Ewe–Asante (Ashanti) weaving tradition of Ghana, celebrated for its vibrant color, symbolic geometry, and extraordinary craftsmanship. Woven from a luxurious blend of silk and cotton, this piece exemplifies the artistry and cultural depth that have made Kente one of the world’s most recognized and collected textiles.

The design features a dynamic palette of turquoise green, golden yellow, warm brown, and glowing orange, arranged in rhythmic bands and geometric motifs. Each color carries traditional meaning—green for renewal and growth, yellow for wealth and vitality, and rich earth tones for grounding and stability—creating a composition that is both visually captivating and culturally resonant.

Kente cloths were historically worn by royalty and used for important ceremonial occasions, making them powerful expressions of prestige, heritage, and identity. Today, they are prized by collectors and interior designers alike for their bold graphic presence and textural richness, whether displayed as wall art, draped over furniture, or incorporated into curated interiors.
