Every hammock you buy will bring many hours of relaxation for you, and much needed employment for us!
Our story
About 30 Years ago a Swiss textile engineer named Peter Schmid was riding through the hills of North Thailand on his motocross bike. He came into contact with the local hill tribe communities and was impressed by their outstanding skills in weaving the most intricate patterns by hand. In an inspired moment he decided to teach them how to weave hammocks, a skill previously unknown in Thailand. He has spent many years teaching hill tribe people how to make hammocks and helping them find markets for their products.
Our difference
Our hand crafted hammocks are of superior quality to any other hammock you have seen. Acrylic yarn is a very unique hammock material, with many benefits which include, weather fastness, colour fastness, super strength, and unbelievably soft comfort. Each hammock is hand crafted by a skilled Lahu weaver with up to 4km of yarn. The end result is a hammock like you have not yet experienced. Moulding to the shape of your body, the thousands of loops allow air to permeate through the material. Two adults are easily accomodated.
We are confident that our hammocks are of superior quality to anything else available worldwide.
Relax, Be Happy and make your friends envious with one of these premium quality hammocks.
