Hand-woven silk textile collection

 

This traditional hand-woven silk textile collection from Laos brings together rich, warm colours

and intricate ethnic designs. These magnificent fabrics, representing centuries of village

weaving tradition, would bring an impressive presence to any home, traditional or modern.

 

For generations, weaving, spinning and dyeing have played a major part in the lives of Lao women. These traditional Lao textiles reflect not only a unique art form but also the skills of weaving and design that have been handed down within the Lao-T'ai ethnic groups from generation to generation.

 

Handmade by Lao T'ai village women on looms in their homes, each piece in this collection represents weeks of work and hundreds of years of tradition.
