Beware of counterfeit Kente Stoles on other websites. Ensure you're wearing authentic Kente Cloth by purchasing directly from us on this website.
Authentic Kente Cloth is a handwoven work of art made in Ghana, West Africa. Kente Cloth was traditionally only worn by Kings and Queens in Ghana and is created by master craftsmen. Kente Cloth provides income to generations of master craftsmen and supports black businesses.
Since gaining popularity, our authentic kente stoles have been increasingly counterfeited. These imitation stoles, machine-made in China, are not handwoven in Africa and misrepresent true kente cloth. Moreover, they appropriate the work of African artists and mislead African American graduates into believing they are wearing authentic kente cloth. Don't compromise on your special day. Ensure you're getting authentic Kente Cloth, made in the tradition of African kings and queens and honoring the heritage of African artists, by buying directly from us.

Soon I will graduate from a doctoral program. When I think about the accomplishment not just being my own but a triumph for my family and all who came before, I wanted to represent our culture. I ordered the customizable Kente stoles not just for me but for all of my family to wear. An embroiderer added the finishing touches by helping me pay tribute to my recently deceased father to whom education in general and this degree specifically, was so important. Thanks team! You have helped make a special occasion even more so while supplying mementos that can be passed down to future generations.
Thank you for choosing our customizable Kente stoles for your upcoming graduation. We understand the significance of representing your culture and honoring your late father with this special achievement. Congratulations on your upcoming graduation and we wish you all the best!

This was the perfect addition to my graduation outfit. The fact that I got a note too was just cute. —and then leaning more about the history of the business, and the meaning of the stole alone, I’m blown away and honored to don this on my graduation day. It also is perfect for customizing (which I’m having done) for your personal perfection. Excited is an understatement. The craftsmanship, the authenticity & precision is just everything. Thank you so much! Posting pics & tagging soon!!
Thank you so much for your kind words! We are honored to have played a small part in your special day. Thank you for choosing us and we can't wait to see your pictures! Congrats on your graduation!

My stole is beautiful and after getting it customized it truly elevates it and will forever be a life long keepsake. If you’re in debate or wondering (like I was), trust me it’s worth it.
