Vintage African Batik Painting - Safari Giraffe Cloth Wall Art
$59.00
Vintage African Batik Painting: Safari Giraffe Cloth Wall Art. Measures about 28.75" by 20.5". Very good condition. In a wood Ikea frame with no glass.
This vintage African batik painting is a striking celebration of safari wildlife and traditional textile artistry. Measuring over 28 inches tall, the piece features a beautifully stylized giraffe, rendered using the ancient wax-resist batik method. This technique produces a unique "crackle" effect throughout the dye, giving the cloth a rich, organic texture that captures the Space Age interest in global handicrafts and natural materials.
The warm earth tones of the dye—ranging from rich espresso to golden ochre—make this a versatile and grounding piece for a variety of interior styles. It is currently housed in a minimalis frame, which provides a modern, clean border that complements the rustic nature of the cloth. Because the frame is used without glass, the tactile quality of the batik remains front and center, perfect for adding depth and warmth to a room. Whether displayed as a standalone statement piece or as part of a travel-inspired gallery wall, this giraffe batik brings a sense of far-off adventure and handmade history to your home. This artwork would be a sophisticated addition to a Dark Academia study, lending an air of world travel and scholarly exploration to the space.
This item is vintage, approximately 35 years old.
