Raffia fabric - Shoowa-Kuba - DR Congo (No reserve price)

Raffia Shoowa fabric – Kuba – Democratic Republic of Congo

This raffia cloth is attributed to the textile tradition of the Kuba people of the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Shoowa textiles are distinguished by the complexity of their geometric patterns, the richness of their textures, and the precision of their artisanal work. Made from raffia fibers, this fabric testifies to the Kuba's textile know-how and the importance of graphic compositions in their artistic heritage.

With its geometric rhythm and natural texture, this textile holds particular interest for African art collectors and enthusiasts of natural fibers. It fits as well into a specialized collection as into a contemporary interior, where its bold graphics create a dialogue between cultural heritage and contemporary aesthetics.
