Fringe appears intact. Earth-tone palette includes cream, olive/gray, brown, black, rust and orange. Fiber content is unconfirmed.Family provenance indicates the piece was acquired in the Congo/Africa. Exact maker, workshop, country of manufacture and weaving technique are currently unknown.Vintage pre-owned condition with visible surface dust/soiling from age and storage. It has NOT been washed or professionally cleaned because I do not want to risk damaging the fibers, dyes or raised decorative elements. Sold as found.
