'Double Dorje with Garuda Beak & Jewel', Tibetan Wall-Hanging Art

Here is the design, 'Double Dorje with Garuda Beak & Jewel', three dimensional Tibetan Wall Hanging Art handmade by Tibetan artist Pasang in Kathmandu. The textile used in this unique piece is sheep wool which come from various pangden (Tibetan aprons) which date back to at least 60 to 100+ years. These woollen textiles (old discarded pangden) have been handpicked from the ground, transformed, and reborn by stitching them together into this beautiful and unique patchwork design. 

There is no other piece like this in the world - this cannot be emphasised enough! Each square piece of pangden comes from a different region in Tibet, from which can be found a rich history in itself. Intertwining hundreds of these pieces together creates layer upon layer of stories, tradition, heritage, ancient Tibetan spinning and weaving techniques, and literally lifetimes lived - all of this interwoven into this one piece of art.

Making Time

• 3-6 months selecting the material and the color combination. 
• 15 days of stitching the pieces together at 8 hours per day. 

Natural Dyes

The textiles from the Tibetan aprons for this piece are found from across Central Tibet and from Lhasa particularly. The natural dye used for the colours are: 

• Saffron for yellow color 
• Indigo for blue color
• Madder for red color 
• The white color is the wool's natural color
