About our handwoven Grey Sedge pouch:

This is a handwoven all natural pouch made of Grey Sedge plant "Purun". This wild plant grows abundant in the peatlands in Borneo, Indonesia and is used by a group of women in Borneo to weave into pouch, bag and basket.

Size: 11.8 x 7.8 x1.18 "

The Dayak tribe in Borneo, Indonesia took the Purun plants from peat swamps around the village using a boat. The most difficult process is to pound the Purun until it becomes thin, before weaving them into pouches.

Purun is organic and easily decomposes, so this pouch is eco-friendly, 100% natural and reusable beyond our gift set.

About our canting wax and dye tool:

Canting is a traditional Javanese tool for applying wax in batik making.

It consists of a small copper reservoir attached to a wood handle.

The reservoir holds hot wax, which is then drawn onto fabric in intricate patterns, used to make our batik bandana or robes.

Used in conjunction with dyes to create colorful designs.
