Traditional ‘Dumbara’ hand-woven cushion cover, made by rural artisans in Sri Lanka using 100% cotton yarn.

The Dumbara weave is a traditional style of hand weaving that comes from the Dumbaragama Valley in Sri Lanka and was traditionally passed down through families and historically made for royalty and the elite as the craftsmanship was of a high level, taking many weeks to make and expensive to produce. The tradition has survived today and our Dumbara pieces have been in collaboration with Kandygs and skillfully woven by a small group of artisans in the Colombo area of Sri Lanka.
