Gamone
A handcrafted 100% Silk fabric created by master weavers in Myanmar. This unique design uses heritage motifs from the Acheik textile tradition, with motifs dating back 1000 years +. The design is locally woven on a village frame loom in Sagaing State. The weaving process uses 100 shuttles, and is meticulous and incredibly skilled with few artisans left able to create such intricate work. Turquoise Mountain is working to preserve and protect this heritage skill.
We are working with women weavers across Myanmar’s ethnic groups, celebrating their sense of community and identity as well as the exceptional craftmanship embedded in their textiles. Our charitable mission supports the weavers to earn sustainable income and helps preserve Myanmar’s diverse textile traditions.

Due to the handcrafted nature of this fabric, there may be small variations in size and pattern, all of which are a part of the authentic creation process that sets these fabrics apart.
