Understreke Handwoven Pillow Cover

Carefully sourced with artistic and humanitarian integrity in mind, the company behind this pillow began with two handloom weavers in 1975 and in the beginning of 2020, now work with about 61 looms engaged in Kala cotton and Mashru weaving in India. They support the livelihoods of around ninety families with a focus on special fabrics like moiraingphee, leirum, lasingphee and phanek. Tribal textiles are woven on a loin-loom, a type of back-strap loom commonly used by hill people. The warp of manageable length and breadth is prepared and fastened at one end generally to the wall of a house or to two fixed poles while the other is tied to the waist of the weaver with a belt.
