This stunning offering has been made by artisans from Nagaland, India, using one of the oldest weaving techniques of north eastern India, known as loin loom weaving. The loin loom or the back strap loom is an ingeniously simple device. Most of the parts are made from bamboo and wood. It is called loin loom because the warp yarns are stretched between two parallel bamboos. The bamboo at one end is fixed to a wooden stick or branch, and the bamboo at the other end is held firm by means of a strap worn around the lower back of the woman weaver. The weaver regulates the tension by bending forwards and backwards. If she bends forward the warp yarns become loose and if she bends backward the warp comes into tension. It is a tricky technique that needs skill and practice. The ancient craft of loin loom weaving was traditionally only done by the women of the house to make clothing for their families. They would plan their weaving activities during their free time between farming and household chores. This brand has kept this tradition alive by employing women artisans who are usually housewives. They weave from the comfort of their homes and support their families through their craft
