Wonderful Rustic, Ethnic African Textiles of the Bakuba Tribe of the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Threads of Raffia from the Date Nut Palm Tree are Woven into Cloth by the Men.  The Traditional Ethnic Designs are Worked into the Weave by the Women of the Tribe, Cutting the Closely Stitched Threads on the Face of the Cloth with a Knife to Create a Velvet Like Pile.

This Selection of Five African Kuba Cloth Textiles Offers a Beautiful Play of Geometric Elements in Various Shades of Chocolate, Brown, Black, Wheat, and Straw. Most Have been Prepared for Fabricating into Decorative Pillows by Opening-up the Hand Stitched and Turned Border, and Steam Pressing.
