Please note that all our handwoven wall hangings and runners (table or bed runners) are hand-dyed and woven using a back-strap loom, and due to the nature of the production process, you may find minor imperfections and flaws in the weave. The minor flaws or imperfections make the items truly unique, and one-of-a-kind.
Materials:
- 100% Cotton
- Naturally Dyed
Dimensions approximately:
- 51 inches x 105.5 inches (approximately 129.54 cm wide x 267.97 cm long)
- This throw consists of 2 panels sewn together; this is a common technique practised by the weavers in Indonesia when trying to achieve 1 large piece of cloth. One-piece handwoven textiles are rarely produced longer than 90 cm long. This technique has become useful guidance for textile lovers to determine whether the textiles are genuinely handwoven with a back-strap loom.
