This unique shawl is made of lotus fibers, which are very strong with similar properties to hemp or flax with high binding properties, as well as absorption and insulation, and protection against UV radiation. However, in their natural state, lotus fibers are thinner and several times softer, and they also contain wax fat, the chemical composition of which makes them more similar to cotton.
 
Overall, when manufacturing fabrics, it becomes an exceptionally soft material that also does not wrinkle, which is why lotus fabrics are classified as exclusive and costs more than compared to many other plant textiles.
 
The method of releasing and forming the fibers into a continuous thread is done without any tools other than a knife, a unique extraction technique that cannot be compared to any other known yarn technique. The weaving  is done on a simple floor loom of the same model as when weaving cotton or silk. The majority of all lotus fabrics are more or less in similar qualities, usually 16 x 8 threads/cm, which this fabric also has.
