Visitors to Thailand often marvel over the smiles they see on the country’s schoolchildren. As they stroll to school each morning, these children are likely to be seen carrying a tote similar to this Thai School Bag.
The Pafai-Mung cotton fabric of which this bag is fabricated is crafted by Jomthong villagers, who hand roll the cottons together. The village of Jomthong has a long cotton-making culture. Each successive generation of children learns to make cotton from its family members and grows up to pass on the technique to the next generation.
