Genesis

SOLD OUT

Alina Olegovna Zakharova handweaves her chabu from bamboo, cotton and wool, some with silver or gold thread worked into the design. Each takes up to thirty hours between the weaving and the embroidery, and she is always searching out new materials and ideas for the next one.

Genesis measures approximately 112 by 30 cm, well suited to bowl tea sessions.

It comes with its own cover, which protects the finer bamboo sticks woven through it during storage and transport.
