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

Raffia fabric Shoowa – Kuba – DRC

This raffia fabric 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 motifs, the richness of their textures, and the precision of their artisanal craftsmanship. Made from raffia fibers, this cloth 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 natural-fiber enthusiasts. It also fits well in either a specialized collection or a contemporary interior, where its bold graphics create a dialogue between cultural heritage and contemporary aesthetics.
