About Us
Founded by The Swallows in Sweden, to support war affected women in 1972 through manufacture hand woven fabrics. In 1997 the organization handed over by locally qualified management to continue support to the local community peoples by providing regular work. As a member of WFTO, this textile organization is experiencing more than 40 years in hand loom textile field to handle various hand made products that are environmentally friendly, made under fair circumstances, of high quality and beautifully finished. Our artisans and craftspeople are at the core of our organization and besides providing them with decent jobs we also work to eradicate illiteracy, create health awareness and self-employment, raise awareness among the landless for the rights of land and empower women by creating economic and social awareness. Our products are all made by hand: We do our own dyeing and weaving, using GOTS certified organic cotton. Our artisans are well trained in a range of traditional skills like applique work and embroidery. We have a complete range of home textiles including cushion covers, table linen, quilts and throws. Next to developing our own designs we are very experienced in making your own ideas into products.
