Description: Cambodian Krama scarf handwoven ethical production from Siem Reap Province. Sturdy traditional Khmer garment with many uses, including as a scarf, bandana, face covering, for decorative purposes, and as a hammock for children. It may also be used as a garrote by Kun Khmer/Bokator fighters, who also wrap the Krama around their waists, heads and fist. This piece of fabric accompanied the Khmers throughout their history and did so for centuries. Faithful companion, always helpful (Cambodian repair their bicycle tires by filling them with kramas!), reliable to the end, this simple scarf alone represents many values that are attached to the Cambodians. Today, the country begins rebuilding its society. The younger generation has received the scarf as the legacy and the spirit it embodies. Through the many patterns of Kramas that are now available, one should see the symbol of the revival of Cambodia. The country is changing and these scarves embody the desire of a people that is opened to the world, while maintaining its own values … and of course without losing its smile!
