Greeting fellow steemians!!
Today we decided to give a royal touch to our Ankara products by using #kente fabric to make this beautiful envelope clutch and heel.
KENTE
Kente, known as nwentom in Akan, is a type of silk and cotton fabric made of interwoven cloth strips and is native to the Akan ethnic group of South Ghana. Kente is made in Akan lands such as Ashanti Kingdom, (Bonwire, Adanwomase, Sakora Wonoo, Ntonso in the Kwabre areas of the Ashanti Region) and by Akans in Ivory Coast. It is also worn by many other groups who have been influenced by Akans. Kente comes from the word kenten, which means basket in Akan dialect Asante. Akans refer to kente as nwentoma, meaning woven cloth. It is an Akan royal and sacred cloth worn only in times of extreme importance and was the cloth of kings. Over time, the use of kente became more widespread.
Detailed tutorials on how to make them will be posted soon so be on the lookout.
Sorry if the image is not so clear. We just finished this product (its evening in Ghana) and we couldn't wait to share it with our fellow steemians. Also we hope to purchase a digital camera soon so we can take awesome product pictures.
