LAOS -HANDICRAFTS


HANDICRAFTS

Textiles, basketry, silver, woodcarvings and handmade paper are some of the most popular handicrafts in Laos. Lao weavers are known for producing intricate fabrics in home spun silk and cotton, most notably, complex mut mee (ikot) patterns based on folklore and natural themes. Some of the best weavers come from the Tai ethnic groups in Houaphan Province.If you are planning a visit to Luang Prabang and are interested in weaving, don’t miss Ban Phanom or the night market in the center of town.

When visiting one of the country’s charming villages, be sure to ask to see local crafts being produced using traditional technologies .Purchasing a handicraft directly from artisans that use natural, traditional production methods supports both local economies and the survival of indigenous knowledge. If you are unable to make it out to the villages, there are handicraft shops in almost every provincial capital selling distinct local products.
