Lahu Table Runner
This handmade product with its traditional pattern will be very original on your table! It is a product from the range offered by Thai Tribal Crafts, a self-help marketing agency established in 1973 with the main goal to provide opportunities for improving the quality of life of the tribal people in Northern Thailand.

This table runner has been woven in the Lahu tribal community. The Lahu have about 73,500 people living in Northern Thailand. The Lahu women do unusual weaving and patch work trims while the men are skilled in producing musical instruments and other items from bamboo.

Lahu people traditionally grew their own cotton, but this activity is no more possible due to the land limitation: nowadays, they purchase it at the market. Then, they weave cloth using back-strap and foot-treadle looms. Finally, the cloth is decorated, with various techniques: patch-work appliqu?, embroidery, bands of cloth or silver buttons. Within our range, you will find this table runner in various sizes and various colours. Just choose the one you prefer!

When you buy this handcraft, 60% of its price goes to the craftsmen. You will enjoy the use of this high-quality table runner, and at the same time have the satisfaction of knowing that this purchase will help the tribe to raise its standard of living.
