Naga Pouch
Dacco Myanmar
These pouches are crafted from Naga textiles, which are famous for being some of the most striking textile in Asia.
A single shawl can take weeks to complete because the embroidery is done by hand over a base that was also made by hand on a backstrap loom. The hand embroidered motifs represents a element of nature or a piece of ancestral folklore.
Please Note on Exclusivity: Due to the nature of crafting from existing, hand embroidered textiles, every pouch is a one-of-a-kind piece. For this reason, we currently carry only one of each specific design.
