Bogolan is a Malian fabric dyed using a technique employed in Mali, Burkina Faso, Guinea, and Côte d'Ivoire. It consists of a more or less thick cotton cloth, spun and woven 100% by hand, with patterns dyed using fermented mud and other organic dyes. The dyeing technique is 100% organic, free from any harmful chemicals. The word bogolan, from the Bambara language (the most widely used language in Mali), comes from the words bɔgɔ meaning earth, and lan, a Bambara suffix with no equivalent in French meaning "originating from." It refers to both the fabric and a particular style of dyeing. Artisans draw symbols on these fabrics to tell traditional stories of the region's peoples. Once used by warriors and hunters for camouflage, Bogolan fabric is now used worldwide to illustrate its connection to African culture. This fabric has multiple applications: cushions, tablecloths, rugs, upholstered furniture, etc. It can also be used as a sofa throw and on armchairs. Bogolan is the perfect complement to Bohemian-chic, bohemian, ethnic, global, or Afropolitan decor.
