Ethiopian Amhara nobles cloak

[Tim Simmons]

I guess this would just be for the Abyssinian collectors, there are a few. The Amhara are the political elete in Cenral Ethiopa.

Early 20th perhaps even late 19th century silk and silver cloak. If you have the fancy decorated weapons and shield then you need this. Shown spread out on our dining table approx 50 inches in diameter. The collar is 15 inches long. The picture of a red cape is from John Gillow "African textiles, colour and creativity across a continent" These fabric come from Arabian and Indian trade.
