The Lisu are direct descendants of the indigenous semi-nomadic tribes of Tibet. Over the last 300 years or so for political and survival reasons many have chosen to migrate to Thailand where they sustain a living through handicrafts. There they are able to sell their products through fair trade producer group Thai Tribal Crafts (TTC). The embellishments and appliqué used in this purse reflect the traditional patterns used by the Lisu people to embellish their clothes.
