Frequently asked questions.
What are Krajood bags made of?
Krajood bags are made from 100% natural Krajood fibers, a type of reed that grows in the wetlands of Southern Thailand. These fibers are sustainably harvested and handwoven by skilled artisans to create beautiful and durable bags.
How are the bags made?
Each Krajood bag is meticulously handcrafted by skilled artisans in Southern Thailand. The process involves harvesting the Krajood reeds, drying for up to 6 months, treating them, and then weaving them into intricate patterns. This traditional craftsmanship has been passed down through generations, ensuring each bag is unique and of the highest quality.
Our custom bags feature hand-embroidered unique designs, woven onto the bags using natural Merino wool once the initial Krajood weave is complete.
Are Krajood bags eco-friendly?
Yes, Krajood bags are eco-friendly. They are made from natural, sustainable materials and crafted using traditional methods that have a minimal environmental impact. By choosing Krajood bags, you are supporting sustainable fashion and helping to preserve traditional craftsmanship.
Can I customise my Krajood bag?
Currently, we offer a variety of designs that showcase the beauty of Krajood weaving. While we do not offer custom designs for individual orders, our collection includes a range of styles to suit different tastes. If you have specific design requests, please contact us, and we will see if we can accommodate your needs.
How do I care for my Krajood bag?
