Ikat : an ancestral dying technique practised across the world. Colour is dyed on to the yarn to create pattern in the weaving process. A diffused effect on the final weave pattern is created by using partially dyed yarns.
Craft: This particular fabric is known as Faso Dan Fani, and each design is a woven story, full of symbols. It is made using a generations-old method of hand-weaving practised in West Africa. Faso Dan Fani literally means "woven loincloth of the homeland". The production of this fabric is of great economic and cultural importance in Burkina Faso.
Storie produces these objects in order to transmit the knowledge of these traditional crafts, to promote this intangible cultural heritage, as well as economic autonomy of these craftspeople.
