Histocial Background of Traditional Dhaka Weaving by Limbu Women from Nepal: Limbu women from the eastern part of Nepal used to be great fabric-artist entrepreneurs and very hard working a couple of centuries ago. There were no imported threads available for weaving then, therefore they used to grow cotton themselves in their fields. They used to spin thread for weaving after harvesting raw cotton and drying it in the sun. The women used to weave handloom cloth called "Dhaka". Traditional Nepalese Dhaka weaving is characterized by colorful geometric designs. The loom is made of wood and bamboo. This type of traditional weaving has been bequeathed to their female descendents. This traditional material is also used in interior decoration for modern contemporary houses; you can find it used for cushion covers, curtains, table runners, table mats, wall hangings, etc. This material is also used in boutiques to make unusual and unique designer outfits. Definitely the credit goes to our mothers and grandmothers for passing such skills down through the generations. The skill of weaving Dhaka material is endangered because of mass production of imported material from China and India. About the Artisan: This jewel toned ethnic piece of cloth is woven by KalpanaYonghang. She is a Limbu artisan from Nepal. She does weaving at her home in Gokarna. She wants to continue this type of weaving to preserve this traditional weaving art of Limbus. She started weaving 6 years ago with just one loom, now there about 12 women weave with her, each on her own loom. She is looking for a designing partner to produce items to sell in the global market. Product Description: This hand loomed cotton item can be used as a table runner or a scarf.
