Over $89.9 million sent to artisans so far!
Inspired by the multi-colored tones of nature, Desak Nyoman Parwati creates this stunning robe. She works in tie-dyed rayon that is hand-stamped in a leafy batik motif. It wraps and ties with a matching belt. The bold motifs and color nuances in green and blue are fascinating. The comfortable robe features on-seam pockets on both sides.
For eleven years Desak worked with a batik artisan learning all aspects of the process, from wax painting to dyeing. From her, she learned not only the art of batik and textile design but also how to care for her workers. In her workshop, Desak and the older artisans generously teach their art to the younger artisans, preserving for another generation this UNESCO cultural treasure.
Through perseverance, Desak has grown her workshop. She now employs members of her family and give jobs to other artisans in her community.
The Women's Empowerment badge is awarded to female artisans or artisan groups that are led by women.
Desak works hard to care for her three children and does all she can to give them a better life.
This artist has dramatically improved their livelihood by working with NOVICA.
Desak provides for the education of her three children.
Looks just as pictured. Great lightweight robe for summer!
