Lajur Kereta Fabric

---

Lurik is a traditional Javanese textile that once held a significant role in society. The letter ‘i’ in lurik means small or dainty in Javanese, informing how the stripes in lurik fabric are traditionally less than one centimetre wide. Unfortunately, the myriad of stories behind the designs of lurik has been eroded by modernity as time goes by. This series is meant to reintroduce this priceless tradition into our modern-day living. Lajur Kereta is woven out of thinly striped patterns of lajuran. A perfect touch of the earth to your everyday home living. The base fabric is handwoven by pedal loom weavers in Ibu Lusi’s house, Sleman.
