Description
Rahila Pink Mayafi – Maxi Cotton Veil with Scalloped Embroidery and Lace Detailing
Maxi | Baby Pink | Embroidered Cotton
The Mayafi holds deep cultural significance across West African communities—known as Mayafi (Hausa: Ghana, Nigeria, Niger), Kala Ibadou (Wolof: Gambia), and Iburon (Yoruba: Nigeria). This cotton style, full-bodied and carefully finished, is traditionally worn by married women and gifted at moments of transition and celebration.
The Rahila Pink Mayafi is made from soft baby pink cotton and features scalloped embroidery along all edges, blending tonal pink stitching with gentle metallic gold. The borders are trimmed with guipure-style lace that adds both texture and a sense of refined craftsmanship.
Soft, graceful and rich in meaning, this veil makes a thoughtful gift for a bride, mother, or for life’s special ceremonies. Part of Sonjiki’s With You Always Mayafi Collection, it offers elegance rooted in tradition.
