Fugu is a handwoven cotton fabric from Northern Ghana, traditionally produced by master weavers in communities across Tamale, Bolgatanga, and Daboya. It is one of Ghana’s most significant cultural textiles, known for its durability, breathability, and the distinctive way its narrow woven strips are joined by hand. Fugu does not use organic dyes in the same way as Baulé or mudcloth, making it slightly more forgiving to wash.

• Dry clean recommended — we recommend Sparrows Laundromat, Osu

• If hand washing: cold water only, mild detergent, handle gently — do not scrub or wring

• Hang or Lay flat to dry — do not tumble dry

• Iron inside out on low heat

• With proper care, a well-made Fugu piece can last for decades
