Taykeo Textile Gallery Weavers in Vientiane, Laos

This video was taken about three years ago when Taykeo had some of the best Lao weavers working for her. We're a little biased because the first weaver you see in this video is Bai's sister Bouasai. She wove for Taykeo part-time while she was attending the university. She graduated over a year ago and now works at another job, but still helps us out in managing our business interests in Vientiane. In this video you can see some very complex weaving and with one weaver you can see her picking out a pattern by looking at an antique Lao textile. All the Lao silk you see has been naturally-dyed and the colors Taykeo chooses for her textiles are simply gorgeous. You can see some of her beautiful textiles at our Yahoo store here. The textiles aren't cheap, but our prices are half of what you would pay in any of the museum shops where you might see her textiles for sale.
