Hand-woven Kanvô
Hand-woven Kanvô
The Kanvô, a Fon language expression meaning “woven loincloth” in French, is a cultural treasure of Benin. In northern Benin, it is also known as “Tako”. This magnificent loincloth is made by two ethnic groups: the “Baâtonu” in the North and the “Fon” in the South. Initially reserved for royal use, the Kanvô is made by talented weavers from cotton, linen or hemp threads.
At Ledoux Store, we offer this fabric in bulk, handmade by artisans selected for their expertise. Each order is personalized according to your project, with an adapted quote. Capture the authenticity of African craftsmanship with Kanvô, a fabric rich in history and culture.
