⁠People of CDK GYENCHA - The hands behind the threads.

In the quiet rhythm of Bhutan, before the world fully wakes, women sit at their looms — their hands moving with memory, patience, and ancestral wisdom. Some learned to weave from their grandmothers. Some learned out of necessity. Some learned because it was the only skill that could support a family.

These women are the heartbeat of CDK GYENCHA.

Their work is not hurried. It follows the pace of life children playing nearby, meals cooking, wind passing through the open windows of their homes. Here, weaving is more than craft: it is heritage, identity, and the quiet strength of womanhood.

For many of them, weaving used to be unseen ,valued within family traditions but rarely recognized as professional skill or dignified livelihood. CDK GYENCHA exists to change that.

By working with home-based weavers and single mothers, the brand creates space for women to earn, create, and belong — without leaving their families or their villages. They set their own pace, work with intention, and weave from where they feel strongest: HOME!

Every textile they create carries the journey of hands that have overcome, learned, and risen. Their skill travels far beyond the loom — to runways, museum spaces, and wardrobes around the world creating memories.Yet the soul of every piece remains rooted in their land, their stories, their time.
Their weaving is not just fabric — it is hope woven into cloth.
It is culture meeting innovation.
It is tradition meeting the future.
It is community woven into one story.
