Inspiration: KENTE Cloth





Kente Cloth, (last photo) the "Cloth of Kings" is singularly known for its brilliantly woven colorations.   Post-civil rights, its trendy and far-reaching appeal makes it an often-used design source inspiring Hip-Hop rhymes, tony 5th Ave. interior decor, and international abodes.  Its uncommon lineage (Ghana circa 11th Century) and enigmic status are simply Inspirational.
