What are the different types of bazin?

The first, the rich or prime bazin, is characterized by superior quality cotton and weave. Its specificity will be seen in the shine of the fabric. The second, the medium-rich or second-choice bazin, was born following the arrival of Chinese cotton, which is cheaper.

Bazin Riche is a premium woven cotton of great elegance, very flattering. It comes in a wide range of colors.

We recently discovered the secrets of the iconic wax. But among the famous fabrics on the African continent, we also find the bazin. It comes from England, which was very famous between the 18th and 19th centuries. In Africa, it arrived mainly in Mali between the 19th and 20th centuries. There are many dyeing workshops as well as people in charge of importing the fabric all over Africa. Senegal and Ghana have their own production, but Mali's remains the most famous.

However, raw cotton fabric is imported from Germany, the Netherlands or China. Its manufacture is very complicated and takes place over several stages. Between sewing, knotting and dyeing, bazin is a very expensive fabric. Unlike other fabrics, it is not ironed but struck with a wooden stick weighing 2 kilos. This practice even created the "bazin tappers" profession.

There are 3 types of bazin, all with different qualities. The first, the rich or prime bazin, is characterized by superior quality cotton and weave. Its specificity will be seen in the shine of the fabric. The second, the medium-rich or second-choice bazin, was born following the arrival of Chinese cotton, which is cheaper. Its price is half that of a rich bazin. Finally, the least wealthy costs four times less than the first. It is also made from Chinese fabric but of a lower quality than the second. This allows it to be used by the most modest people.

This fabric is mainly used for traditional outfits. It is also found in decoration or furniture. The loincloth (piece of fabric) is very present during religious and cultural ceremonies. It is a symbol of tradition, childhood, Africa and family.

It is offered at weddings as a dowry. In Africa, men and women do not hesitate to buy the last pieces of bazin for very large sums. It is a real treasure for a country's economy.
