This hand-spun brown cotton scarf is the result of days of work with care for detail and beauty.
From the planting of the cotton seed to the end result, the scarf has been made entirely by hand in the ancient artisanal manner.
It is made in the age-old Thai tradition where respect for nature and beauty are paramount.
The yarn is artisanally woven by an experienced village weaver.
Sustainably grown cotton
The scarf is made of cotton grown and harvested in a sustainable way.
Farmers cultivate the land on a small scale without pumping rivers and lakes dry.
The annual rainy season provides sufficient irrigation.
Nature thus provides variable harvests, making organic cotton scarce and expensive in Thailand.
Yet the result makes the effort more than worth it:
There is no environmental damage and the high-quality fabrics stand the test of time with ease.
Thus, this scarf lasts a long time and does not wear out quickly.
And the fact that you wear it with pleasure and pride for a long time is also better for your wallet.
Woven by hand by experienced weavers
This scarf from statjebeeldig does not come from the factory.
It has been carefully hand-woven thread by thread by experienced artisans on a wooden loom.
To do so, they used old techniques they were passed down from previous generations.
The result is an original handmade garment you won’t find anywhere else.
Our weavers live in a dry environment for much of the year.
When there is no work on the land, they try to contribute to the family income by weaving their fabrics.
They are therefore very grateful for your support.
This brown cotton scarf is getting softer and softer
The fine cotton still feels a little stiff at first.
This is because the yarn has been washed in rice water beforehand.
That way, the threads could be woven tight and strong.
It immediately feels nice and falls nicely and gets softer after each wash.
It is a scarf you will enjoy for years.

The natural colour of the cotton plant
What makes this scarf special is the undyed brown and white yarn.
It is the colour of the brown and white cotton growing on the bushes.
Brown cotton is grown on a smaller scale and is rarer than white cotton.
You can wear this scarf all year round
In most parts of Thailand, the temperature, by European standards, is quite high.
Because Thailand has three seasons: warm, warmer, hottest.
These three these seasons you’ll enjoy wearing this scarf.
And you certainly will in European spring, summer and autumn.
But also indoors when the heater is not yet on.
The scarf falls smoothly around your neck and feels cool to the touch.
That’s because of the fine thread with which it is woven.
