- Precio
- $99
This hand-woven striped scarf is crafted by skilled artisans in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, using 100% cotton and a centuries-old weaving tradition. Woven on a black warp that deepens the earthy tones, it's a generous unisex size that works just as well for men as it does for women — and it makes a thoughtful, meaningful gift for anyone who appreciates beautifully made things.
✨ Features
- 🧵 Hand-woven on a black warp: The dark warp thread brings out rich, earthy stripe colours with real depth and warmth.
- 🌿 100% cotton with eco-conscious dyes: Coloured using low-impact, AZO-free, REACH certified reactive dyes — kind to skin and the environment.
- 📏 Generous unisex sizing: Measures 73" L x 16" W, making it versatile enough to wear as a scarf, wrap, or lightweight shawl.
- 🤲 Eyelash fringe edges: Finished with delicate fringed ends for a classic, handcrafted touch.
- 🌍 Ethically handmade in Ethiopia: Every piece is made by hand from thread-spinning to final weave, supporting fair, sustainable livelihoods for artisans.
- 🎨 One-of-a-kind by nature: Slight variations in each piece are part of what makes every scarf a unique work of art — no two are exactly the same.
💛 Benefits
- Lightweight enough for year-round wear, yet substantial enough to add warmth on cooler days.
- A unisex design means it genuinely suits everyone — ideal as a gift for him, for her, or for yourself.
- Buying this scarf directly supports a network of Ethiopian weavers and the women who hand-spin the cotton thread in their homes.
- Free from harmful dyes, so it's gentle against sensitive skin.
- The slight handmade variations mean the person wearing it has something truly individual — not a mass-produced copy.
🏺 The Story Behind the Scarf
The Addis Ababa artisan group behind this scarf has preserved Ethiopia's ancient hand-weaving traditions while creating ethical, sustainable work opportunities for local craftspeople. The cotton thread is hand-spun by women across rural communities — a skill passed from mother to daughter — and then woven on traditional hand looms by master weavers who have inherited their craft from their fathers. From spinning to finishing, every step is done entirely by hand. A single weaver produces just one to three scarves per day, depending on the complexity of the pattern. That's the care and time woven into every piece.
