Fun to wear, top/poncho made with a vintage, medium weight, striped indigo textile, from the Dogon in Mali. I have had several of these made in Africa, and each piece is unique and one-of-a-kind, some with patches, and a variety of fabrics used. Please check my store as I receive and list more. 29” x55”; Very good-excellent condition; washed and clean, will not bleed; Neck and bottom edges hemmed. Textiles used in these pieces are old, and have been worn as wrappers before being made into the tops, so some may be a few minor “imperfections”, or maybe some repaired holes/flaws. However, many people prefer and/or appreciate the “wear” on some pieces, since they show the age, origin, and use of the older cloths. Please check my store as I receive and list more.
