Each piece is entirely handmade, with meticulous attention to every detail. The patterns, inspired by the cultural traditions of the Kachin people, are woven with carefully selected threads, creating unique textures and an exceptional visual appeal.
By choosing one of these cushions, you’re not only bringing home an original decorative item — you’re also helping to preserve a rare and precious craft.
