The Tibetan Nomadic Tent is an ode to the Tibetan tents, or ghur. A classical Tibetan tent would usually be in white, with blue ornamental patterns stitched on it using the traditionally used appliqué technique. These are make-shift tents to protect the residents from dust, storms, and extreme temperatures on the roof of the world. The Tibetan Nomadic Tent is a fun DIY project and comes with an instruction manual. Complete the set with the mini dolls and yak collection! The dolls are handcrafted and serve as an educational tool for children, showcasing Tibetan culture through diverse attire and jewellery. Each piece is handmade with Himalayan sheep wool and fabric scraps. The Tibetan Nomad Doll Set is exceptionally well-made by a fair-trade enterprise based in the valley of Dharamshala, in the Northern Indian Himalayas that employs women from the local Tibetan and Indian community. Their aim is to empower the artisans by training them in new skills and creating meaningful, income-generating, and enjoyable work opportunities within a homely and supportive environment. Additionally, they focus on creating a series of high-quality, child-friendly dolls inspired by Tibet’s unique culture.
