Gauze Linen Scarf in 5 Colors from French Home Shop is meticulously handwoven by Ethiopian artisans with fine Linen thread into an airy, natural texture fabric that can last forever. It’s finished with a raw eyelash fringe and available in five rich and versatile colors.
Gauze Linen is considered a luxury textile because it is very labor intensive to produce. It is not elastic, so weaving with linen thread is very difficult, but it’s one of the oldest and strongest fibers in the world.

- AAG strives to create respectful, ethical and sustainable work opportunities for artisans in Ethiopia and showcase the talents of their weavers to the world.
- The beauty of handspun thread is a rare commodity in our quickly changing world of mechanized textile factories.
- From the spinning of the thread to the weaving of the fabric, the process is done entirely by hand.
- The skill of hand spinning is passed down from mother to daughter, and most rural women spin at their homes for extra income.
- As most spinning is done during free time, it is a way to support women with supplemental income.
- The art of weaving is passed down from father to son, thus almost all weavers in Ethiopia are men.
- These handweavers purchase hand spun cotton thread from the network of women throughout the community.
