Surya Rutten

Belle couverture traditionnelle de mariage avec perles en verre aux motifs tribaux.

Les bandes verticales de laine épaisse (rouge, bleu, vert, jaune, brun) et le perlage géométrique polychrome renvoient très clairement à une couverture cérémonielle sud-africaine, typique du royaume zoulou ou des Nguni :
	•	Couvertures dites “ibayi” ou “umqhele” selon leur usage ;
	•	Servaient lors des mariages, initiations, ou cérémonies de prestige ;
	•	Les bandes perlées (souvent cousues aux extrémités) représentaient les alliances, clans ou statuts

En laine naturelle de mouton
