Prestige cloth (Adinkra)
Not on view
Adinkra cloths are among the most acclaimed textile forms from Ghana. Of imposing scale, this Adinkra prestige cloth is made of six panels of factory-woven cloth, dyed in yellow, onto which rectangles filled with seven different patterns are applied with stamps. The rectangles are divided by multiples straight lines that define a grid. The cloth is further divided into six vertical sections by five narrow embroidered bands of multicolor machine-spun cotton yarns. This cloth is an impressive example for its scale and vivid palette.
