Stunning wall decor or perhaps may be used as a table runner.
Korhogo Cloth always tells a story. These are the meanings behind the popular motifs.
Korhogo cloth fabric is very similar to mudcloth, which is a more familiar fabric to many people. It is produced in the Ivory Coast, in West Africa; and is named after the village of Korhogo in the northern part of Ivory Coast.
Korhogo cloth is produced by painting a design on hand spun, hand woven, and hand painted cotton fabric. This is often done using a stencil; and the painting is done with a specially fermented solution that turns black after a reasonable amount of time has passed. Korhogo cloth is used in making clothing and craft items. It is most popular as a truly authentic wall decoration.
- The hunter signifies life’s mysteries.
