CRAFT SET RAI DIN THAI SUMMER WILD HONEY (270 g.)

“Eco-Print Scarf Dyed with Lac Color”

Creativity meets local wisdom in this unique piece. The Eco-print technique involves pressing natural leaves and flowers onto fabric, creating beautiful, one-of-a-kind patterns on each scarf. When combined with lac dye, the scarf takes on a soft, deep pink–red tone, characteristic of natural lac sourced from insects.

The charm of this fabric goes beyond its beauty. It reflects a mindful approach to resource use: lac, a natural material used instead of chemical dyes, protects the environment and is safe for wearers. It is also a well-known export product of Lampang Province.

By blending local botanical motifs with lac dye, each scarf becomes a work of art that tells the story of the seasons and community life. Visitors to Tha Mao can even join workshops to create their own Eco-print scarves with lac dye, experiencing the joy of making art from nature and taking home a truly unique souvenir.

“TIE-DYE FABRIC BAG NONG KHAI”

Made from the abundant local resources along the Mekong River, in Ban Duea Community, Nong Khai Province, these hats perfectly blend traditional natural dyeing wisdom with contemporary fashion.

The “fig”, a native fruit, provides leaves and bark that are extracted into natural dyes, producing warm, soft tones from light brown to deep brown, depending on the fermentation and dyeing process. Each hat has a unique color, reflecting beauty, comfort, and breathability, while offering sun protection for outdoor activities. They are also skin-friendly and free of chemical dyes.
