Discover Authentic, Eco-Friendly Home Decor from Bali

Bali is a land of breathtaking beauty, known for its lush landscapes, vibrant culture, and serene beaches. But beyond the popular tourist spots lies a world of intricate artistry, where skilled hands transform natural materials into stunning works of art. This is the heart of Bali Natural Weave, a brand that celebrates the timeless tradition of Indonesian craftsmanship.

Our journey began with a deep appreciation for Bali’s rich natural resources. The island’s wetlands and forests provide an abundance of sustainable fibers, each with its own unique texture and character. We’ve mastered the art of working with these materials, turning them into beautiful and functional pieces for your home.

 

From Earth to Art: Our Sustainable Materials

At Bali Natural Weave, we believe in creating products that are not only beautiful but also kind to the planet. We carefully select each material, ensuring it’s sustainably harvested and processed with care.

  • Water Hyacinth (Eceng Gondok): This fast-growing aquatic plant is often considered a nuisance in waterways. However, Balinese artisans have discovered its incredible potential. Once dried, its fibrous stems can be woven into durable, lightweight, and versatile baskets, placemats, and decorative items. Perfect for adding a natural, bohemian touch to your eco-friendly home decor.

  • Seagrass: Found in coastal areas, seagrass is a strong and flexible fiber with a distinctive, earthy texture. Its natural resilience makes it perfect for creating sturdy baskets, rugs, and storage solutions that add a touch of rustic charm to any space.

  • Banana Fiber: After the banana fruit is harvested, the stalks are often discarded. We rescue these stalks and transform their strong, coarse fibers into elegant, eco-friendly products. Banana fiber has a unique texture and a beautiful, natural sheen that adds a touch of sophistication to our designs.

  • Mendong: A grass-like plant from the sedge family, mendong is known for its incredible flexibility and smooth texture. It’s a favorite among our artisans for creating intricate and delicate weaves, resulting in fine placemats and coasters that make for unique handcrafted gifts.

Balinese people have a philosophy called Tri Hita Karana—the three causes of prosperity—which is harmony with God, with other people, and with nature.
