Prayer Flags, Construction

Our prayer flags are made in Nepal by Nepalese Buddhists in the centuries old fashion which is completely traditional in every way (except they now use polyester as well as cotton) . Someone once asked about the frayed edges. "Neat edges" or hemmed edges are not typical and the fact that they do not have hemmed edges is not a sign of poor quality. The frayed edge is traditional. It is the nature of the thin cotton or gauze-like material are made from.

Some flags are made with sewn lap seam edges, and are usually a little more costly but will not fray at the edges as easily. They are so noted on our website.

If you giving them as a gift to someone you may be confident that they are not supposed to be made with "perfect edges" , and this does not reflect on the product being flawed in some way.

The primary purpose of the Prayer Flags it to be hug out doors where the wind can activate the blessings. The sun, wind and rain will fade they or wear the Flags out over time. This is normal. This type of auspicious flags are given to as a blessing to married people, funerals, dignitaries, special fits and even to business people around the world. To some people in the western countries unfamiliar with the Prayer flag tradition, they may at first seem a bit folksy, or humble looking. But, there is real power in activating the hearts and minds of people for blessing the world.

We are proud to offer the spiritual handicrafts of the Tibetans, Nepalese and Himalayan cultures which express the power of enlightened thinking about building a higher quality world through right thinking and action.
