NOALiving proudly presents an extraordinary collection of Bakuba textiles (Kuba textiles) and distinctive African fabrics, meticulously curated from across the vast continent of Africa and esteemed private collections in Europe and the United States. Our extensive assemblage exceeds 1,000 rare and authentic pieces, predominantly dating from the mid-20th century, and showcases the profound artistry, historical depth, and cultural significance of these textiles.

Central to our collection are the renowned Kuba textiles from the Bakuba Kingdom in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, celebrated globally for their intricate geometric patterns, masterful craftsmanship, and exceptional texture. The collection prominently features remarkable pieces such as the traditional "Nchakabwiin" skirts, intricately woven and richly symbolic garments traditionally worn by women during significant cultural ceremonies. Each piece encapsulates the heritage and skilled artistry passed down through generations, with every pattern narrating stories of communal identity, status, and spiritual significance.

Complementing our Kuba offerings are the distinguished Ndop textiles, esteemed for their deep indigo dye and symbolic motifs representing leadership and authority within African societies. Additionally, our collection proudly features the elegant Zulu wedding beaded skirts, vibrant masterpieces meticulously crafted to symbolize marital status and tribal affiliation, alongside the distinguished fabrics of the Tuareg people, known for their resilience, symbolic expressions, and enduring aesthetic beauty.

At NOALiving, we cherish the opportunity to preserve and showcase these cultural masterpieces. Our founder, born in Liberia and maintaining deep roots in Africa through continued visits and active engagements, is deeply committed to empowering local communities and artisans by promoting their extraordinary craftsmanship to a global luxury market. Each textile acquired by NOALiving supports sustainable practices, cultural preservation, and economic empowerment in African communities.
