Handwoven and Ahimsa Silks

Handwoven textiles are the result of a huge chain of events and much human effort. Until recently, this was of little interest to consumers as price was the only thing that mattered. Handwoven products still come from places of tremendous poverty and also great hope that the skills these people know – hand spinning – hand weaving and finishing – will help to ease their daily lives. These textiles are still very competitively priced but things must change if we are to keep access to the fruits of their labours.
