This is a handwoven, raffia textile which is sometimes referred to as a Kuba cloth, from Democratic Republic of Congo. Also known as Madiba this African plant fiber cloth was made by the men of the Kuba tribe in the Kasai region of the Congo called the Kuba Kingdom. The cloth was made from fiber from the raffia palm (Raphia Vinifera). It normally took about one day to make two or three lengths of cloth depending on the skill level of the craftsman. The cloth is used as money for Bride price, ceremonial payments and as tributes to the Chiefs. Kuba cloths are beautiful pieces of African art and look great displayed as wall hangings. The diameter is approximately 118 by 28. Very versatile, great for artwork wall-hangings (framed or unframed), upholstery fabrics, soft furnishing (cushions, decorative pillows, etc.), table runners/coverings. New condition.
