This Kente cloth has been woven on a man's double-heddle loom. Kente is an interwoven, Ghanain cloth particularly produced in the Asante region where it is worn on occasions of importance. This cloth has been made from fourteen warp-striped strips (10 cm in width) in black, red, green, buff, white and blue-green. The weft-faced bands are in tones of yellow, red, green, blue-green and white alternate with the warp stripes. It has been made in imported machine-spun yarn. It was collected in the 1920s and was presented to the Danford Collection by Sister Evelyn Bellamy in 1969.
