About the Item

This African design throw from the SoShiro Pok collection is named Marsupia as it is best described as a wraparound cloak – a hybrid of throw and blanket. This cozy cocoon will keep you warm for a stroll with a pleated scarf neckline and a large pocket to carry your favourite items. It is made of 100% baby camel wool in its natural colour and adorned with hand-stitched bright coloured glass pearl beads. The Pok collection celebrates the artistry of hand-crafted beadwork made by the Pokot women in Northwest Kenya. Inspired by the Pokot women’s most valued ornament, the necklace, designer Shiro Muchiri combines their artistic cultural heritage with sophistication in the complex and vibrant beaded detailed structure. The camel wool is part of their arid habitat and pastoral lifestyle. This Marsupia cloak reflects the crafting abilities of the Pokot women. Dimensions: L 210cm, W 150cm, H 0.1cm.
