Batik Oasis Pom Pom Pillow Cover - Thailand

These one-of-a-kind cute pillows are perfect to stack up on your bed or couch! They are handmade with traditional batik, hand stamped in Northern Thailand by women artisans. The making of this intricate art is done by Hmong hill tribe women of Northern Thailand. Using large copper blocks, they stamp hot wax designs onto cotton cloths. Making wax outlines allow the dye to dye only the areas without wax. The fabric and wax is then dipped in indigo and other dyes to create the beautiful color. It is then boiled to remove the wax and the final product is what you see here! Your Fair Trade purchase helps to economically empower women artisans, improve quality of life and preserve tradition and cultural legacy.
