The name of this design is inspired by its motifs, which look a lot like onions. In Benin this fabric is also called ‘Home on three legs’ and it symbolizes the power of unity.

Super-Wax

The most defining (and beloved) feature of a Super-Wax is its duo-colour “bubbling” print effect. Made using a highly-unique wax printing technique unlike any other in the world, every piece of Super-Wax is created with an unequalled and extraordinary level of care and precision. First, a design in liquid wax is printed on cotton. A base dye such as indigo soaks into the cloth around the wax, leaving behind a deep, intense colour. The magic of the ‘wax-breaking’ during the printing process results in a large, irregular pattern of vein-like bubbles throughout the design. One single Super-Wax goes through an average of 27 total steps before completion. The result is a layering of vibrant colours, ‘bubbles’ and imagery unique to Super-Wax, and produced only by Vlisco.
