WOVEN GRASS FIBRE SCREEN ('INYEQAMO'). TUTSI, DRC

£1450

Finely Woven Grass Fibre Screen (Inyeqamo). Tutsi Culture, Rwanda

Rare to find fine, screens such as this would have been rolled down to separate the sleeping area and alcove in a traditional Tutsi household. The weaving, made from fine strands of grass fibre is supported by a series of bamboo stems. The free-flowing zigzag design is one that is often found on Tutsi basketry and screens.

Estimated Period: Mid 20th Century or Before
