The Kente Collection typically refers to garments or products made from or inspired by Kente cloth, a vibrant and historically significant textile originating from the Ashanti people of Ghana, as well as the Ewe people of Ghana and Togo. It is widely regarded as one of the most iconic symbols of African cultural heritage.

Kente is rich in symbolism and history, with each pattern, colour, and design carrying specific meanings related to:
- Status and identity
- Proverbs or philosophy
- Historical events
- Moral values or social codes

Things to Consider
- Authenticity: Real Kente is woven by hand, mass-produced printed versions exist but lack cultural depth
- Cultural Sensitivity: Kente has sacred and ceremonial value. Using it respectfully (especially by non-Ghanaians) is important.
