The brocade weaving of the Thai ethnic people in Yen Chau has a long history. The skillfulness and resourcefulness of Thai ethnic women are reflected in the fabric they weave. To create nice brocade items, Thai women have to take many steps that require meticulousness from picking, drying, carding, twisting, rolling and spinning cotton to dyeing, colour mixing and skillfully embroidering. When getting married, every girl must have beautiful scarves and blankets as gifts to their parents-in-law.

Brocade products of the Thai ethnic group in Yen Chau feature many patterns and motifs, expressing the eternal harmony of life. These images represent the proliferation of species and the harmony of heaven and earth and all things. The stylized images of rhombuses, canariums, flowers, leaves and plants are incorporated into brocade products by the skillful hands of the weaver.
