Product Description


Dogon Antique Weaving Loom
This antique weaving loom was used to make Bogolan mucloth from the cliff dwellers of Mali. Structurally, a Dogon loom consists of eight to ten tree limbs bound with cord into a rectangular frame about five feet in height, eight feet in length, and four feet in width-inside of which a weaver sits. He is sheltered from the sun by trees or, more commonly, a roof made of matting. In narrow strip weaving, the width (or weft) of a strip may be as narrow as one inch or as wide as twelve inches, and the strip’s length (or warp) may be half a mile or more. The Banba weaver has the threads of his warp laid out in front of his loom and twisted into a skein that will be unwound as he weaves the weft back and forth and creates cloth, which may then be cut and sewn together at the selvages.
Made of 100% wood, cord.
Model is W 30 – H 30 and weight 1 kg.
