Maasai Zigzag Pair – 'Enkátá Olng’ej' (Echo Form) – Woven Containment Covers.

Maasai Zigzag Pair – 'Enkátá Olng’ej' (Echo Form) – Woven Containment Covers.

Echo pattern. Contain rhythm. Weave ancestral symmetry. This sculptural pair draws from the Maasai concept of Olng’ej—echo form, where geometry repeats, memory settles, and woven containment becomes ritual. It’s a tactile offering of symmetry, protection, and visual grounding.

Crafted with handwoven fibers and bold zigzag motifs, the set features two conical covers with narrow necks and symmetrical black-and-white patterns—each evoking rhythm, vigilance, and ceremonial grace.
