African Aso Oke Cloth Fabric Handmade By Tribal Yoruba People - Nigeria

Description

Greetings. Thank you for your interest. I am proud to offer Aso Oke Cloth Fabric which was Hand Woven and Hand Sewn By Tribal Yoruba People of Nigeria. The Yoruba people hand weave long strips of fabric which are then sewn together to make up the larger textiles pieces. Men have traditionally done the weaving in Yoruba culture but some Yoruba women are beginning to weave also. These weavings are traditionally used for special ceremonies like weddings, name givings, funerals, births and other religious ceremonies. This large Aso Oke Cloth textile specimen measures 74 inches long by 52 inches wide. This specimen is in excellent overall condition with one slight stain the size of a dime and would be great worn as a wrap or shawl. This specimen would normally be used and or processed further for crafting purposes such as constructing clothing items, table cloths, drapes, pillows or wall decor from - these pieces look great stretched and framed and even as throws on couches and chairs. There is really no end to the great items which can be made from these Cloths! Very nice, interesting African textile fabric for any craft person to create with or for home decor. Feel free to email me for more pictures.
