Fascinating indigo handwoven textile from the Cameroons that is resist dyed in differing geometric patterns. Woven in narrow long strips that are sewn together to create a traditional yards-long wrap for men. A great example of indigo handweaving and specialty dying by indigenous peoples, this example is from Africa. Please have a look at our Japanese and Tibetan indigo wovens also, in addition to our American hand woven blankets and coverlets all of them natural dyed with that beloved indigo blue
