AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Beautiful African indigo cotton cloth from Mali, traditionally worn as a wrapper.

This textile was hand-woven in seven narrow panels, that were then combined to form a larger cloth, stitched together by hand. The textile was dyed with natural indigo, using a resist-dye technique (tying, knotting) resulting in the white pattern. One end was hemmed, the other features a little fringe.

In very good vintage condition, with one corner slightly faded and worn (probably where it was tied at the waist).

Would look great as a throw blanket, wall hanging or even beach wrapper!

Length (without fringe): 144cm or 57 inches
Width: 108cm or 42.5 inches
Weight: about 500 grams
