A note about Thai hill tribe silver – Unlike standard sterling silver which is 92.5% silver, hill tribe silver contains more than 95% silver. The higher silver content creates an attractive low luster finish and is very often blackened to lend an antique look and give the appearance of an amulet, which is believed to bring good luck and protection to the wearer. Every piece is delicately and uniquely handmade by a Northern Thai craftsperson who is a member of a hill tribe village.

Beautiful handmade and handwoven silks from Thailand, Laos & Vietnam

Every piece of handwoven silk is a timeless, unique work of art from the hands of a rural Thai or Lao woman. Since it is artwork produced by a human, it forever carries an imprint of the character, thoughts, emotions, feelings, spirit and life of the weaver. Unlike machine made silk, which is “perfect”, its imperfection is the heart of its beauty and the proof of its human creator.
This weaving process has been passed down from mother to daughter for many generations. Symbolic figures of Buddhism, animals and people, both obvious and abstract are woven into the patterns. These women traditionally weave on looms located under the eaves of their houses in between tending to their families and chores. It can take up to two months to create one of these beautiful works of art.
These hangings also make lovely table and bed runners. The lighter weight pieces can be worn as scarves or shawls. We have noted the various uses in each description and also listed weights to give you a sense of the silk density.
