About Thom Living
In order to preserve the only remaining gray sedge field in the Mekong Delta, Thom Living was born. Its mission also includes maintaining the traditional grass-weaving profession of the local people, whose population consists of many Khmer.
The Thom Living name derives from the Khmer language, with "Thom" meaning natural. All stages of production are done by the hands of the artisans, from harvesting, drying, weaving, and dyeing. Other products at Thom Living are also made from bamboo, rattan, or other sustainable and eco-friendly materials.
In addition, the gray sedge marsh that Thom Living chooses to preserve and harvest from is also home to the rare, threatened sarus crane during the dry season. Therefore, the brand not only provides its customers with rustic decor items, but it also helps to protect endangered animals.
