Terracotta zomersjaal met wit

You can wear this terracotta cotton summer scarf with white all year round.
In most parts of Thailand, the temperature is quite high by European standards.
So always warm and not really weather for a thick warm scarf.
This scarf is therefore particularly suitable for the warmer months.
It is excellent to wear on cool summer evenings.
Or indoors when the heater is not on yet.
It falls smoothly around your neck and feels cool to the touch.
That’s because of the fine thread with which it is woven.

Terracotta from the volcano

vulcanische aarde uit Buriram de kleurstof voor onze sjaals

The city of Buriram, in northeastern Thailand, is located near an extinct volcano.
The region is known for its fabrics dyed with volcanic mud.
Our weavers also use this volcanic soil to dye the terracotta yarn without chemicals.

Woven by hand on a wooden loom

met de hand geweven op een houten weefgetouw

On a wooden loom, weavers make the most beautiful scarves.
The tradition of weaving is passed on from generation to generation.
Read about it in How are our hand-woven scarves made?

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.
