This special wrap was worn outside, or on top of, the long dance dresses for added decoration and prestige. Made from raffia.
This is a very long Kuba Shoowa textile, with tufting.
CARE: The cloth is not fragile and can be pinned onto a wall or panel for display. To eliminate wrinkles, the cloth can be misted with water, and then gently ironed on the back.
