Weaving Heritage in Tibet's Pulu Craft | Lubbock News

In a remote Tibetan town, a cooperative founded in 2008 is reviving a nearly lost weaving tradition—Pulu—through the delicate art of Zeter, once gifted to Chinese emperors. Led by Pasang, who learned it from his parents when only a handful knew the craft, the cooperative now employs over 100 locals, including those with disabilities, turning ancient techniques into livelihoods. Products like scarves and bags made from ultra-soft wool are sold across China, while elders like 80-year-old Tsering Yangchen find purpose and pride in the work. Recognized as part of China’s intangible cultural heritage, this initiative proves how tradition can thrive economically—and emotionally—when communities come together to preserve what was once on the brink of extinction.
