Korhogo Cloth from Côte d'Ivoire

These striking, picturesque cloths come from the area around Korhogo, an agricultural and market town in the north of Côte d'Ivoire.

The cloth itself is made up of hand-spun, hand-woven cotton strips, sewn together to make a whole cloth. The artists paint onto the surface of the unbleached cloth using a sludgy, decayed mud and natural vegetable dyes. Their traditional designs include highly stylised figures of animals, birds, fish and people.

Korhogo cloths are ideal as wallhangings. Or, if you're a creative stitcher, you can use Korhogo to make your own fashion items, such as jackets, coats, waistcoats, bags, etc.

Every Cloth Unique
Each cloth is a unique, artistic creation, so I have only one of each specific, numbered cloth shown below.

There are two sizes. The larger cloths are usually about 185 x 116 cm / 73 x 45 ins. The smaller cloths are about 122 x 75 cm / 48 x 29 ins.
