This white and brown checked scarf made of pure, hand-spun cotton matches many colours and clothing combinations.
It is a casual scarf that is also great to wear on a suit.
Durable 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 is worth it:
namely, no environmental damage and high-quality fabrics that easily stand the test of time.

The colour was given by the cotton plant
What makes this scarf so special to us is that the brown and white yarn is not dyed.
It is the natural colour of the cotton as it grows on the bushes/trees in Thailand.
Picking and washing was enough in preparation to spinning the threads.

Spun by hand
If you look at the white and brown checked scarf in detail, you will notice the uneven thickness of the yarn.
This gives more structure and depth to the fabric.
Our cotton is an eco-friendly material that does not use polluting machinery.
The spinners get a fair price and a dignified income for their work.
Woven by hand
This scarf from statjebeeldig does not come from the factory.
It is carefully hand-woven thread by thread by experienced artisans.
They make their fabrics on a wooden loom.
And use old techniques passed down to them from previous generations.
The result is a unique garment you won’t find anywhere else.
