Therefore, the texture, seams, colors, patterns, etc. are not uniform unlike ready-made products. In addition, the dyeing, weaving, embroidery, and sewing of the Karen tribe are techniques (skills) that have been handed down from generation to generation as family handicrafts that are rooted in daily life. It is different from professional technique (technology). We do our best to work accurately, but unlike off-the-shelf or professional products, there are imperfections.

[Regarding care for plant-dyed products and hand-woven products] Plant-dyed products are less resistant to washing and sunlight than chemical dyes, and their color changes with use. Pay attention to the following points when cleaning and using the product. Color may transfer or fade due to friction or wetness. Be careful of color transfer when wearing or using light-colored clothes or bags. If you use dark-colored clothes and bags together, even if there is color transfer, it will not be noticeable. Dark colors and indigo are especially prone to fading, so we recommend washing them before wearing. Also, when washing, we recommend hand washing separately from other clothes. When using a washing machine, use a neutral detergent, put it in a net, and wash it separately from other clothes on a gentle cycle. Avoid using a dryer and dry in the shade. ・About gluing. In the case of fabric products, we sometimes use threads that have been starched with rice, but the starch will come off after washing. If you have any other questions, please feel free to contact us!
