Key Features:
- Artisanal Craftsmanship: Custom woven exclusively for the Center for Traditional African Carrying by skilled West African artisans.
- Unique Design: The center of the Oja features a distinct traditional weaving style that showcases cultural heritage.

- Sustainable Materials: Made from recycled yarns and dyed using natural, vegetable-based dyes, this sash is environmentally friendly.
- Authentic Quality: As with all handwoven textiles, minor weaver’s knots and small flaws may be present, but these do not affect the safety or functionality of the Oja.
- Care Instructions: Spot clean or hand wash for best results.
- Length: 210 cm (note that the measurment is approximate so the actual length can be longer or shorter)
- Width: 45 cm (note that the measurment is approximate so the actual width can be longer or shorter)
