About Malian Bogolan Cloth & Meaning: “The Malian Bogolan is one of the world's most recognized and distinctive, handcrafted African textiles. Strikingly dramatic in its strong, contrasting tones of cream and ochre through to black/brown or indigo blue, the cloth has many applications and uses. More recently, it has been embraced as a symbol of Malian cultural identity." “Termed Bogalanfini (Bambara term) or Bogolan (modern terminology for a contemporary cloth), this textile is a handmade, Malian, cotton fabric which has traditionally been dyed with fermented mud in a painstakingly long and complex process. The cloth was made traditionally by the Bamana who live to the east and west of Bamako, but the best cloth comes from the Beledougou area where it is thought the cloth originated from as early as the 12th Century.” (Taken from Bogolan mud cloth)
