Hmong fabric ethnic tribal textile hilltribe Thai throw natural organic dye neutral white gray stripe Karen pillow boho pillow decor CB90
This is a hand made fabric by the Karen or Karian ethnic group of Thailand and Burma. It is hand woven on a traditional back-strap loom with cotton colored using natural, organic, vegetable dyes. This is a more expensive and time-consuming process than using chemical dyes but results in the enchanting character and soft hues of the colors you see in the photos.
Because of the narrow size of a back-strap loom (narrow to fit the size of the weavers back), the fabric width is correspondingly narrow and this shirt/tunic is constructed of two separate lengths of fabric, folded over at the shoulder of the garment and hand sewn together both on the sides and in the middle front and back. You may of course wear it as a tunic…or it can be re-purposed into cushions, bags, table runners, throws, etc...
The dimensions are 42 length x 23 in width per side and without the fringe. The item is new but some anomalies and aberrations in handwoven, jungle village items are normal and should be expected.
This is one of the exceptions where a color scheme/pattern is available in multiple iterations. Note that the textile you receive may exhibit some slight variation in tone, hue, striping, and size from the item in the photos. For the intents and purposes of this listing, I am considering them duplicates.
