Benin indigo cotton riding coat

£ 350.00

This equestrian coat or blouse comes from the cowboy country of the West African State of Benin. It bears a strong resemblance to the made up indigo Boro Japanese garments and covers, only here most of the material is hand-spun and thus very soft in handle.
