Sidra Black Mayafi

Sidra Black Mayafi – Luxe Maxi Cotton Veil with Red Guipure Lace, Metallic Embroidery, and Gemstones
Maxi | Black with Red Lace | Premium Embroidered Cotton

The Sidra Black Mayafi is the crown jewel of Sonjiki’s With You Always Collection—a piece reserved for moments of highest reverence and celebration. In many West African cultures, the Mayafi is given to mark transformation, honour, and enduring connection. This particular piece elevates that tradition with unmatched craftsmanship.

Made from fine black cotton, the Sidra features scalloped embroidery along three sides, while the fourth edge is adorned with a rich red guipure lace border—luxurious and bold. The lace is further enhanced with metallic embroidery and carefully placed gemstones that catch the light with elegance, not excess. The balance of black and red evokes strength, beauty, and heritage, making it an unforgettable choice for brides, matriarchs, and milestone gifting.

This is not just a veil, it’s an heirloom.
