It took a lot of hard work and determination to get to where you are now and this genuine Kente Cloth Graduation Stole honors your achievement and helps you tell your story. You will look amazing in your graduation pictures and impress many when you walk across the stage wearing this rich and vibrant kente cloth.
The symbol on this stole is the "Sankofa Bird" which depicts a bird looking backwards while flying forward. The Sankofa Bird on this stole sits on the Golden Throne, which represents Royalty. Sankofa is a Ghanaian word which means "it is not wrong to go back for that which you have forgotten.” The word is a combination of the words: san (return), ko (go), fa (seek and take). “Sankofa” teaches us to go back to our roots in order to move forward.
This beautiful black graduation stole is completely handwoven and features vibrant red, gold and green accents. The whole weaving process can sometimes take a Master Kente Weaver up to 4 hours to complete.
- HAND-WOVEN AFRICAN ART– Each Stole is hand-woven in Ghana, West Africa by skilled artisans with strict attention to detail – even the embroidery is carefully hand stitched; the perfect gift and keepsake

Sankofa Bird Black Kente Cloth Graduation Stole
I love it. The quality of the stole surpasses my expectations. The embroidered Sankofa symbol is regal and it symbolizes "excellence". Thank you so much for your timely shipment.
Good quality material and bright colors. I have a sense of pride when wearing it.
We have now been using Sankofa Edition for two years now for huge events. In both events we have honored two amazing contibutors to black communities and both were touched by the gift. That said, I think it would be amazing for Sankofa to consider kente designs outside of graduation for even in ceremonies to honor those who have done service to communities. Just a thought!
It was beautiful and my daughter truly loved it. Appreciated also was the handwritten note that came with the package which added a personalized touch. The explanation of the symbols on stole was fitting for the journey ahead of her as a graduate- Class of 2019. Ase.
I loved it and so did everyone around me
