    About this item

    These beige vintage Yoruba aso oke, sometimes called sanyan, were my first love in vintage textiles. I just love the naturalness of them. They are woven on looms only 4" wide and the strips are sewn together to make a larger cloth. They are decorated with coloured stripes and openwork holes at regular intervals and often with floating supplementary weft  stitching.
