Legend has it that the Buddha attained enlightenment or nirvana while meditating under a sacred fig tree, known as the bodhi or bo tree. According to tradition followers took sprigs from this original tree and planted them as they traveled throughout Southeast Asia spreading the teachings of the Buddha and the path to nirvana. The charming bo tree pattern woven into this silken fabric draws inspiration from a famous painting of a golden bo tree on the wall of a temple in the old capital of Laos. The fabric has an antique look and the six colorways are inspired by elements of the Lao countryside - green rice fields, red clay earth, and orange, golden skies.
