Announcement
Our social enterprise called Weaving Destination, aims to promote the finest ethical silk and vintage-inspired cotton print fabrics and products hand-woven by indigenous women from Bodoland Territorial Council (BTC), Assam, India.
Weaving Destination was established in India as a Social Enterprise of the NEDAN Foundation, a charity based in the BTC, Assam, North East India. It has provided a platform for creating social and economic empowerment for indigenous vulnerable women, survivors of human trafficking and HIV, through promoting their hand-woven fabrics. The women’s involvement and products are based on fair-trade principles, where women are engaged as partners in their own socio-economic development.
The products are made of organic raw materials, including use of vegetable natural colour dyes and non-violent silk rearing practice, while preserving the local community art of weaving through a women's weaving collective. 100% of the profits from your purchase will go directly to the Weaving Destination weavers and to the charitable work of the NEDAN Foundation in Assam, India.

5 out of 5 starsVery happy with my scarf. I bought the same one a few years ago and wore it a lot but sadly lost it so was happy to see I could replace it. It arrived quickly despite potential Brexit-related delays that were mentioned by the seller before she confirmed and sent out my order. Thank you!

5 out of 5 starsThis is a beautiful scarf. It's a lovely gentle cream with beautiful pink and blue motifs. It feels soft and comfforting to touch. This scarf was made in Assam by women creating better lives for themsleves and their families. What's not to like! Dispatched from Edinburgh. It arrived really quickly.

Sorry to hear that you are unhappy with your scarf. Were you looking for white color? The Mina Eri-silk scarf that was sent to you as per your order is cream in color. As indicated in product description, the scarf is in natural Eri-silk color.The natural Eri silk colour can range from cream to beige. None of our Eri-silk products are white as we don't dye Eri-silk. However the satisfaction of our customers is as important to us as the welfare of our weavers and producers. We deal in fair trade and ethical service and all the profits go back to the weavers. Our customers are usually very satisfied with their purchase as can be seen from all previous reviews. Please get in touch with us and we assure you to resolve your concern in the best way possible. Apologies for the delay in our response and for the inconvenience caused.

5 out of 5 starsI ordered 4 scarves in 2 different colors to give to some of my socially conscious family members for Christmas. These are very nice scarves and they arrived promptly. I like the ethos of this organization. Will definitively buy from this shop again.
