Lembata Gift Set

Created especially for this season, this exclusive holiday gift set features pieces that are only available in our gallery and store in Ubud. Offered as a seasonal bundle, this is the only time these items are available on our website.

This gift set includes a beautiful textile and one-of-a-kind basket from Lembata. Senai is a one panel textile which is a narrow textile woven to be worn over the shoulder or around the neck by a woman to complete her traditional dress. The rectangular basket is called hebeng, it is still used today by Tapobali women to carry betelnut and tobacco when visiting friends. Traditional textiles and baskets always contain elements that relate to the way of life within the culture.

The senai textile is beautiful as a table runner or wall hanging, while the hebeng basket makes a striking container or decorative piece. A timeless gift that speaks of the beauty of Lembata and the artistry of its people.

The gift set is beautifully wrapped in our naturally dyed furoshiki wrap. We have included a notecard inside the gift set, so you can share your well wishes to someone special.

Each textile is handmade, and no two are exactly alike. The motifs and colours in your set may vary slightly from the photo, reflecting the individuality of every artisan’s work.
Information about the makers will be supplied with each cloth.
