Karen Stocking
These colourful handmade stockings will bring joy in your house during Christmas! Moreover, being a customer of Thai Tribal Crafts means helping this self-help marketing agency established in 1973, whose main goal is to provide opportunities for improving the quality of life of the tribal people in Northern Thailand.
The cloth of these stockings has been woven in the Karen tribal community. The Karen, also called "Kariang" or "Yang", are the largest tribal group living in Thailand. Sgaw and Pwo Karen, the two major divisions of the group, number about 321,900 people. Karen women are noted for their weaving, and men are skilled in making basketry. Karen still spin thread from their own cotton, and then weave it on simple back-strap looms.
After the production of the traditional cloth in the village, women in Chiang Mai finish the products. This process of production with skilled and trained men and women at each step ensures high-quality products.
We have different sizes, colours and patterns in our stocking range. You are sure to find the one that will correspond to your needs!
When you buy this handcraft, 60% of its price goes to the craftsmen. You will enjoy the use of this stocking and its quality, and at the same time have the satisfaction of knowing that this purchase will help the tribe to raise its standard of living.
