Descriptions:
The unique pattern of this tapestry is a traditional pattern of the Blue H'mong ethnic group living in Hoa Binh province, the North of Vietnam.
The pattern is drawn by hand using melted beeswax and then colored with the natural indigo extract. The red zig-zag line and the diamond-shaped black-red-white appliqués were then stitched by hand.
The technique of drawing this specific pattern can only be mastered by experienced Blue H'mong artisans through years of practice and it is a representative that distinguishes the Blue H'mong from other H'mong groups.
The trim of this wall hanging piece is made from raw hemp woven by hand with old-fashioned hand loom tools.
The back side of the tapestry is from beige cotton
The rattan hanger is not included
