Chus note
Over the past 100 years, Hoa Tien village is known as one of the oldest and most famous brocade weaving cradles of the Thai people in Nghe An province, Vietnam. Thai girls are taught to weave cloth by their mother. Growing mulberries, raising silkworms, nursing silk, weaving, and embroidering are all works that they are all skilled at as a guarantee of maturity. They often make their dresses, blankets, cushions, scarves, etc. to serve themselves and their families.
Thai people consider brocade as essential items in daily life, especially in festivals, village festivals, or happy days of couples. Therefore, each line embroidered is imbued with love for labor and love for the homeland.
Hoa Tien brocade products have natural colors which are fresh, durable, and safe for users. All fabrics are dyed with natural plants such as coffee leaves, squid plants, red bark, slanted roots, turmeric, rotted leaves, cuttings leaves, silky leaves, acacia leaves, backdrops, jackfruit wood, etc.

Special note
1. Instructions for use:
- Wash with shampoo or shower gel of natural origin.
- Wash each product separately to avoid color fading.
- Wash lightly, do not soak for long or rub it vigorously.
- Do not expose the product to direct sunlight.
- Iron the product while it is still warm, or use a steam iron.
2. Note:
- Do not use strong acidic detergents such as soap.
- Do not pour detergent directly on fabric but mix with water before wash
- Do not soak too long in water (reducing the durability, color spreading - this is a setback of natural fabrics - colors do not stay on as well as synthetic fabric)
- Iron on damp fabric or spray with water before ironing (iron the inside first)
- Dip fabric in water before working on it for a good shrinkage, 30s max. Fabric will release color on the first soak, much less later on. Wash quickly the first time and wash separately to avoid color blending.
