Embroidered, not printed. Thread on cloth, with a back side — go close and you see the satin stitch.
Straight from the frame. The same Lustenau machines that have supplied the Lagos exporters for decades, now without the middleman.
One bolt, one shade. Order several lengths and they are cut from the same roll, so a group wears one colour.
A stamped certificate travels in every parcel, naming the dessin, the colourway and the day it was embroidered.

Ordering for a wedding party? Five yards per guest, seven with gele and ipele, ten for agbada. From ten lengths the price per yard drops. How aso-ebi orders work · ask for a group quote.

One design, the whole family.

ẸBÍ — "family" in Yoruba — is the aso-ebi set: the same embroidery on two fabrics. Sheer organza for her, for the evening; cotton Swiss voile for him, for the children, for the daytime. The pattern is quiet geometry: small clusters of dots climbing the fabric in diagonal chains, fine silver lines and sequins between them, and a border of rows of large embroidered discs that gives every hem the same weight. Twenty-five colours across both fabrics, so a family of twelve can walk in together and still each look like themselves.

Embroidered on the Sükün family’s schiffli machines in Lustenau, Austria — the town that has made West Africa’s lace since the 1960s. Straight from the frame to you.

Shown here in Organza · Magenta — as a belted sheer trench dress with balloon sleeves, the disc border as hem and cuff. Choose fabric and colour from the swatches; the design stays exactly the same.

Before you cut: lay the cloth flat and let it rest overnight. Embroidery is stitched under tension and settles.
Washing: hand wash cold, or dry clean. No bleach, no soaking, no wringing. Guipure and cord lace prefer dry cleaning.
Drying: never in the machine. Roll in a towel, then dry flat in the shade — hanging stretches the ground cloth.
Ironing: low heat, from the back, with a cotton cloth between. Metallic thread and sequins melt.
Storage: rolled, not folded, away from light. A fold line in lace does not come out.

Fibre composition is stated on the cloth as delivered.

On the bolt: cut, labelled and packed in Lustenau within 2–4 working days.
Not on the bolt: we embroider your colour. That takes 2–3 weeks — we tell you within one working day, and you may cancel free of charge.
Transit: Austria 1–2 working days · EU 2–5 · UK, Switzerland, Norway 3–5 · USA and Canada 5–10 · Nigeria, Ghana, Togo, Cameroon 6–14.
