This exquisite vintage Khasa strip-woven wool textile from West Africa is traditionally constructed from narrow handwoven panels carefully joined together to create a large flatwoven textile. The naturally variegated grey wool ground displays subtle tonal shifts and striations from the handspun fibres, giving the textile wonderful depth and texture. Horizontal bands of warm rust red bordered by fine ivory lines cross the upper and lower sections. In contrast, the small diamond-shaped motifs in ivory, rust, and ochre provide delicate geometric accents. The visible panel construction, decorative central join, and small tasselled ends emphasise its traditional handwoven character. With its restrained earthy palette, minimalist geometry, and beautifully organic surface, this Khasa blanket is a distinctive example of West African textile craftsmanship.

Authentic antique and vintage African textiles are hand-woven with wool. Each is an exceptional work of art, unique.

Pictures are taken in natural light to portray the most realistic colours possible. Due to the handmade and preloved nature, slight imperfections and flaws are not defects.

Our textiles are professionally restored, and the fringes are secured, ensuring many more years of life.
