Hand-woven ikat patterned mat, handmade by local artisans in Bali, sourced directly from the island. Ikat is made using a very time-consuming technique where patterns are created by tying and dyeing the threads before weaving them. This process gives the patterns a unique "blur" or "bleed" effect. ● Product Description ① Design: The pattern mainly features ikat patterns on the warp threads. This is a type called warp ikat (tate-kasuri) or single ikat. The white motifs have a flower (or star)-like pattern in the center, surrounded by small diamond and crescent-shaped motifs. These often symbolize abundance (harvest), the continuity of life, or specific gods and ancestors. - Fringe: Yes ② Uses: Interior decoration, mat, tapestry ③ Size: 100cm x 52cm ④ Color: White/Blue In traditional Indonesian textiles, indigo (blue) and madder (red) are the basic colors of natural dyes, with indigo symbolizing the sky, water, and cosmic concepts such as the north and protection. ■ Notes This is a handmade item by local artisans. There may be some irregularities and distortions. It is not uniform in size like a factory-made product. Please understand this before purchasing. We hope to deliver this to those who appreciate the charm of these imperfections as part of its character. Most of the materials we handle have been collected one by one over more than 10 years by a friend living in Bali, who has visited local workshops and markets. Because these materials were found through connections with local artisans and people, many of them are no longer available. ※ Some similar designs are still being made, but the items we handle are those selected at that time. ※ We also have several other types of ikat fabric for sale.
