Handwoven belt by Hishuk
In red and white, this handwoven waist belt is a long braided band with tassels made with the double face tablet weaving technique. Each side has the opposite colors. It features houses, churches and lighthouses, each different from the other.
Tablet or card weaving is a technique where tablets or cards are used to create the shed through which the weft is passed. Tablet weaving dates back at least to the 8th century BCE in early Iron Age Europe where it is found in areas employing the warp-weighted loom.
It wraps twice around the waist. You can wear it high or low waisted on the outside of a dress, over a loose shirt, through the belt loops of your favorite jeans or over your coat.
