This versatile, open-front wrap is crafted from a handwoven cotton textile, known in the Bambara language as bògòlanfini. The fabric is meticulously hand-painted with intricate geometric patterns using a traditional Malian process involving fermented mud and plant-based dyes. This labor-intensive technique results in a rich, earthy fabric with a beautiful story. Versatile Style: The ruana's open design allows for various styling options. Wear it draped over the shoulders, belted for a more defined silhouette, or simply as a flowing shawl.
