| The Lepcha pouch set brings the rhythmic clack of Himalayan back-strap looms to the pulse of modern life, translating an ancestral craft into everyday utility. Lepcha weavers—often perched on verandas overlooking cardamom fields—anchor one end of the loom around their waist and the other to a bamboo post, using their own body tension to control warp tightness. This intimate method leaves subtle irregularities that authenticate each length of fabric. Organic cotton threads are dyed with natural madder and low-impact Azo-free pigments before being arranged into the signature “thùngpnyok” stripes whose palette narrates forest green, river red, harvest gold, and mountain white. Once the cloth is released from the loom, it is light-starched, hand-cut, and reinforced with rugged canvas borders for added shape. A water-repellent lining keeps spills or makeup smudges from bleeding into the weave, while colour-matched YKK zippers glide faultlessly even after thousands of tugs. The roomy large pouch accommodates journals or a small tablet; the mid-sized pouch corrals chargers, pens, and toiletries; and the compact pouch secures coins, keys, or earbuds. All three nest when empty, saving drawer space and packing weight on the road. Simply spot-clean with a damp cloth or hand-wash in cold water and air-dry flat; machine agitation is discouraged to preserve the weave integrity. Expect tiny colour flecks and micro-variations—these are fingerprints of manual dyeing, not defects. Your purchase channels fair wages to Lepcha women’s cooperatives and funds skill-sharing workshops for the next generation. Carry these pouches and you carry a fragment of the Himalayas, turning the everyday act of organising into a quiet pledge to keep a living heritage alive. |
Lepcha Pouch Set of 3
₹599.00
| Carry colour and culture wherever you wander with this set of three Lepcha pouches, hand-woven in the Sikkim and Darjeeling hills. Traditional back-strap looms interlace organic cotton threads into vivid stripes of vermilion, emerald, mustard, and snow-white—tones that symbolise local rivers, forests, harvest, and peaks. Each pouch is trimmed with durable canvas, lined in wipe-clean fabric, and finished with a smooth YKK zip to safeguard essentials. Graduated sizes corral everything from coins and cables to cosmetics and travel documents without adding bulk. Lightweight yet remarkably hard-wearing, they slip easily into handbags, backpacks, or desk drawers. Select this trio to organise with flair while sustaining an endangered Himalayan weave. |
