Lisu Pencil Purse
Thai Tribal Crafts carries a wide range of Lisu pencil purses, within which you are sure to find the one that will fit you! Thai Tribal Crafts is 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.
The patterns of these purses have been crafted in the Lisu tribal community. The Lisu have about 28,000 members living in Thailand.
These purses reflect the traditional pattern used by the Lisu people. Indeed, they make vibrant colored patchwork cloth items and the Lisu outfits are decorated with bands of many bright colours.
After the production of the traditional pattern in the village, raw materials are given to women in Chiang Mai who assemble the cloths and materials and finish the products. This process of production with skilled and trained men and women at each step ensures high-quality products.
When you buy this handcraft, 60% of its price goes to the craftsmen. The children will enjoy having this pencil purse at school, as well as adults will appreciate to use it. And at the same time, you will enjoy knowing that this purchase will help the tribe to raise its standard of living.
