Yakan Fabrics

Yakan Fabric

This is what the Yakan tribe is known for: Their colorful and intricate hand woven fabrics. These are usually made as dress, placemates, coin purse, wall decor, or table runner. The coin purse can be bought for as low as 15 pesos at the weaving center, but commands a higher price when purchased as a pasalubong shop.

The Yakan tribe can be found in the city of Zamboanga and in the Province of Basilan
