Place: The village is located in Van Giao
Commune, Tinh Bien District, An Giang Province
Characteristic: Van Giao brocade symbolizes the beauty and rich cultural
character of Khmer ethnic people's brocade
Van Giao brocade has multiform style, harmonious color and fine pattern because
weavers combined traditional method and modern technique. The specific dyeing
technique of Van Giao Village is use of natural dyes. It makes silk shining,
smooth and fast.
For brocade shawls, Khmer people usually weave 3 layers of silk fibers with 3
different colors. If looking straight, you will see blue. If looking from the
left side, you will see orange. If looking from the right side, you will see
red. And for brocade picture or table-cover, the weaving technique is more
difficult because the patterns usually base on fairy tales. Van Giao brocade is
currently exported to many countries such as United State, Australia, France,
Thailand, Cambodia... under trade brand Khmer Silk.
