Known as tobo alang, this textile’s pattern refers to the carvings on a rice barn. Used for storing crops, they are always paired with traditional homes in this remote part of Central Sulawesi. The motif evokes the importance of sharing the fruits of a harvest or success with family and community.
The selendang, or shoulder scarf, is a single panel textile made with ikat motifs. It uses the red, blues and blacks typical of the sekomandi woven pieces made by weavers of the To Mangki Karatuan ethnic group.
