There are approximately 23,000 Lisus living in Thailand.
The Lisu of northern Thailand make their clothing from coloured cloth stitched into outfits trimmed with row upon row of multicoloured stripes of cloth, applique patchwork, tassels, and beadwork.
The more wealthy wear massive amounts of hand-crafted silver ornaments for festive occasions.
Lisu men produce crossbows, bird and animal traps, musical pipes and bamboo flutes.
