AURA QUE have been working with Deepchand's workshop in Bhaktapur, Nepal for over a decade. The workshop employs local women who work flexible hours near their homes enabling them to earn an income around their family commitments. They prepare the looms, spin the bobbins and hand weave the fabric for our bags and in a looser weave for our scarves. AURA QUE products are individually handcrafted and the unique story behind each AURA QUE product enhances its charm!

made from:

Our sustainable banana fibre is produced from the waste foliage of the banana plant, grown in the Terai flat farming area of South Nepal. The plant has to be cut back after the fruit harvest so that it regrows for the next season, so trading this waste product provides an extra income to the farmers. We only use azo-free dyes for our banana fibre. Woven banana yarn takes on a softer and more flexible texture with wear. Banana yarn is suitable for vegans and is an ideal alternative for those who suffer wool allergies. Small imperfections in the weave due to the rustic handweaving process add character to each piece.

Care instructions: Machine washable on cool. Do not tumble dry. Separate dark colours.
