Frequently Asked Questions

How can I verify if my Kente cloth is authentic?

Visit our Verify Authenticity page, where we explain the registry identifier system and how to check a cloth against its registry record.

I am a Kente weaver. How do I register with the Registry?

See our How To Register Kente page for the three registration pathways (Design, Master Weaver Profile, and Cloth Authentication).

Does the Registry sell Kente cloth?

No. The Kente Registry is a non-profit cultural documentation initiative. We do not sell cloth, and we do not broker sales. We connect enquiries to registered weavers and communities wherever possible.

Can I use Kente Registry materials for educational purposes?

Yes, with attribution. Please contact us to discuss specific use cases, particularly for publication or institutional teaching.

How is the Registry funded?

We are in our founding chapter and are developing partnerships with cultural institutions, foundations, and like-minded organisations. See our Partners page for more.
