Vintage African Korhogo Cloth Senufo Hand-Painted Mud Cloth Tapestry 50"x35
Authentic Vintage Korhogo Cloth – Senufo Tribal Art. This is a stunning, authentic example of Korhogo textile art, expertly crafted by the Senufo people of Ivory Coast. This piece features traditional hand-painted tribal figures—including hunters and ritual masks—symbolizing protection and communal values. Hand-Woven Fila Strips: The canvas is constructed from individual ~4-inch wide hand-loomed cotton strips, hand-sewn together edge-to-edge. This traditional method is a key marker of genuine Senufo craftsmanship. Natural Pigments: The bold, dark designs are applied using traditional fermented mud-based and vegetal pigments that have developed a beautiful vintage patina. Artisanal Provenance: Purchased from an estate sale, this piece represents a genuine mid-to-late 20th-century artisanal creation. Dimensions: ~50 inches x 35 inches. Condition: In good vintage condition. There is a small, localized stain on one of the central figures (see photos for detail). This imperfection is common in hand-crafted, used tribal textiles and does not detract from the overall display quality. Perfect for: Tribal art collectors, interior designers looking for a statement piece, or as a unique wall hanging for a global/bohemian home.
