Handwoven Mud Cloth Throw 160cm x 100cm

A Rather Splendid Piece of Living History

This is, quite honestly, one of those rare home additions that manages to be both utterly fetching and genuinely meaningful. You're looking at an authentic handwoven mud cloth throw, crafted using techniques that have been refined over generations in Mali. It's the sort of thing that makes people pause mid-conversation and ask where on earth you found it.

Why Choose Our Handwoven Mud Cloth Throw

Authentically Handcrafted: Each piece is individually made using traditional methods passed down through families. This isn't mass produced, which means your throw carries genuine artisanal character that simply cannot be replicated.

A Story in Every Thread: The cloth begins with hand spun cotton, woven on small strip looms into narrow pieces, then meticulously sewn together. Women artists then apply the distinctive mud dye by hand using traditional spatulas, creating patterns that reflect personal taste, cultural heritage, and genuine artistic vision.

Natural Materials, Proper Craftsmanship: Made from locally sourced cotton and dyed using natural mud mixtures derived from local tree leaves. The entire process unfolds at a pace that demands patience and skill, resulting in something altogether more substantial than your average textile.

A Conversation Starter: Whether draped across a sofa, layered over a bed, or displayed as a wall hanging, this throw draws the eye and invites questions. It's the sort of decorative piece that actually means something.
