Bring the timeless artistry of Central Africa into your home with this authentic vintage Shoowa Kuba cloth, handwoven from natural raffia fibers by Kuba artisans in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
This striking textile features two traditional geometric patterns joined together in a single composition. The raised cut pile embroidery creates incredible texture, making this piece equally beautiful displayed as wall art, framed, or incorporated into a textile collection.
Each vintage Kuba cloth is handmade and one of a kind. Natural variations, uneven edges, and signs of age are part of its authenticity and tell the story of its craftsmanship.
