Style of the Moment: A Taste of Africa
Embrace Regionalism
Whether you are thinking of African fabrics or African musical instruments, you will find that the differences and variations could fill an entire library, so make sure that you take a look around at the regional differences. The cloth that you find in Ghana, for instance, will be instantly distinguishable from the African fabrics that you find elsewhere.
African Arts and Crafts
African arts and crafts are often found in the form of statues, figures and figurines, as well as decorative cloths and musical instruments, particularly drums. Most African art is
ivory, and other embellishments were attributed as far back as 10th century AD, and were usually reserved for royalty.
