This soft, beautifully woven African print throw is inspired by the elaborate and complex designs of the traditional Kuba cloth from the Congo. It is cozy, lightweight, hypoallergenic, and sustainably and ethically crafted in Africa. It has a minimalist beauty that melts together the colors of fall and the daydreams of winter. It is the perfect size to curl up with on the sofa or toss in the car, bursting with tradition and culture when draped over a chair or couch; it will add that finishing touch to that new room design you’ve been working on.
This beautifully crafted throw is inspired by the elaborate and complex designs of the traditional Kuba cloth, unique to the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Perpetuating the rich cultural traditions, the men grow the raa palms and then weave the leaves into the base fabric. The women then embroider surface decorations onto the fabric, transforming it into various forms of textiles, such as ceremonial skirts, tribute clothes, headdresses, and basketry.
The African Kuba Cloth print is fully machine washable. We recommend machine washing your blanket on a cool, gentle cycle and line-drying to preserve the fibers and color. Check out our full care guide here
