About the Item
A very large Irate Textile from the Toraja tribes of Sulawesi, Indonesia. The Toraja tribes people are an ethnic and cultural group of people who occupy the mountainous highlands of South Sulawesi, Indonesia. Famous for their unique architecture and carvings, the Torah also produce stunningly intricate textiles. Much like other textile producing regions of Indonesia, textiles were influenced by trade networks that stretched to India and other parts of South East Asia. These textiles are hand-woven, often taking many months to create, through a method passed on through generations. The textiles are crafted from cotton and natural dye. The abstract pattern on the textile is meant to represent the journey of life. This textile is known as a Sarita, which are among the largest and most valuable textiles or “Ikats” as they are referred to in Indonesia. They have become increasingly rare to find
acquire as the tradition has slowly become less prevalent. These textiles are prominently displayed during ceremonies to decorate traditional houses, symbolizing that the full cycle of rituals—such as weddings. This textile is visibly old with fading of the dye over many decades, there is a small tear highlighted in the images

Vintage Hand Woven Indonesian Ikat Textile Panel
Located in Barrington, IL
A striking vintage hand-woven Ikat textile panel from Indonesia, dating to the mid-1900s. This artisanal piece features a bold abstract design, achieved through the meticulous process of warp ikat—a technique in which the threads are selectively tie-dyed before weaving to create complex, interlocking patterns.
Woven from natural cotton fibers, this panel likely originates from the Lesser Sunda Islands in eastern Indonesia, possibly from the culturally rich island of Sumba. The intricate craftsmanship and dynamic geometric forms reflect traditional Indonesian textile artistry while offering a timeless, global aesthetic.
Ideal for display as wall-mounted tribal art, this textile adds texture, heritage, and warmth to any interior, whether as a centerpiece in modern spaces or a complementary accent in eclectic or traditional décor.
