Handwoven in Myanmar (Burma), on a traditional backstrap loom. Backstrap weaving is a time-honoured skill, and one that has been passed down through generations within the Chin community. The motifs in this textile depict the Laytu’s (Chin ethnic tribe) interpretation of natural forms, patterns which have been woven in their communities for centuries. These heritage patterns are hand-picked into the weft using a porcupine spine. Scroll right to see some photos of our wonderful weavers at work.
