Tisserands traditionnels, Weaving cooperative in Bomizambo, Côte d'Ivoire.

The weavers of Bomizambo create traditional cloths using cotton, silk, and polyester on wooden looms in an open workshop structure.

This cooperative maintains ancestral weaving techniques through generations, passing down knowledge from father to son according to methods established centuries ago.

The produced cloths are used in customary marriages and ceremonies, with specific patterns and colors carrying important traditional meanings.

Apprentice training takes seven years, including two years of observation and four years of practice before achieving complete autonomy in textile creation.

Men's cloths, sold between 100,000 and 130,000 FCFA, require more work than women's cloths, which are priced between 13,000 and 18,000 FCFA.
