Our Fair Trade Tamnak Scarf is a simplified version of a much more intricate design found on traditional Lao textiles.

• Three checkered “stripes” on each end are woven using technique called supplementary weaving.
• All dyes are natural and derived from organic plants near the village.
• Once the loom is set, each scarf takes at least one day to weave, provided the woman artisan isn’t busy with tending rice fields, children, cooking, etc.

An empowered weaver, farmer, and mother with a warm smile and heartfelt kindness.

The three checkered lines are a simplified version of an intricate design found on many Lao textiles, including those commonly hanging in Buddhist temples.

• This indigenous design would typically be woven in 4-6 colors, span the length of the scarf, and include other elements, like dragons, rivers, and fish.
• This fair trade scarf takes approximately one full day of weaving if the artisan does not have to tend to rice fields and other domestic duties.
