This unique textile is made in east Sumba within a community of weavers in Kenatang, best known for their rich plant dye indigo work. The brilliant white ikat patterning denotes a lion and deer or ruha motif and borders the main centerfield containing a kurujungga motif. Only a master weaver is able to maintain the reverse sections where the motif is blue on a white background. The white threads must be securely tied to resist the blue dye.
This would be a beautiful wall hanging, bed throw or something to snuggle up in on a chilly night.
Information about the makers will be supplied with each cloth.
