Uluwatu Handmade Balinese Lace
Specially Providing Ladies Wear
Are you a fashionista
woman? If so, just come to shops of Uluwatu
Handmade Balinese Lace that specializes
in woman wear for upper than 25 years. Factory
office located at 59 Jalan Tondano Sanur
provides a wide range of fashion with hundreds
of designs like casual wear, pyjamas, formal
wear, long-sleeved kebaya, top, dress, skirt,
pont, bed linen (pillow, blouse), complete
tablecloth and certainly many more. However,
one thing should be bore in mind that all
products of Uluwatu are made skilfully by
hand.
Women
from this island of artists
have always produced extraordinarily lovely
textiles for temple ceremonies and dance
costumes. When in the 1930s they turned
their traditional craft skills to lace,
they mastered techniques, which were fast
disappearing elsewhere.For over 20 years,
Uluwatu Handmade Balinese Lace has
led the way in preserving and developing
these fine skills. Now Uluwatu presents
something very special: sophisticated stylish
clothing and linen featuring hand made lace
that compares to the best lace anywhere.Most
laces available in the world, even here
in Indonesia, are produced by electric and
computer-guided machines. Uluwatu lace is
still stretched on bamboo hoops and sewn
by hand on foot-powered machines. Thread
ends and edges are closely trimmed by hand,
and all finishing is inspected and re-inspected
many times.
A single item may take five days or more
to complete. If you take a few minutes to
compare lace from Uluwatu with cheaper copies,
you will quickly feel the difference in
quality of materials, workmanship, and finishing.
Our pieces are signed by the artists who
made them. This pride is something you will
feel in the lace.
Uluwatu Handmade Balinese Lace also has
boutique spreading throughout Balimostly
located in Kuta (Jalan Legian, Jalan Bakung
Sari and Jalan Pantai Kuta). Should you
currently stay in Sanur area, simply come
to ours on Jalan Danau Tamblingan. Or if
you happen to stay around Ubud, you may
make a visit to Jalan Monkey Forest. There
you can find the product of Uluwatu Handmade
Balinese lace. We also open outlets at some
hotels like at Grand Hyatt Bali, Nusa Dua
and Conrad Hotel at Tanjung Benoa, Nusa
Dua.
According to Heru Widyanto, Manager of Uluwatu,
those shops are deliberately provided at
tourist resorts because the products are
indeed intended for tourists. Nevertheless,
many domestic tourists and the locals also
put interest on it. Our consumers
consists of 80% foreigners and the remaining
is locals, he said while adding that
products of Uluwatu also exported amounting
to some 500 to 1000 pieces per month.
Made Suti, Marketing Officer of Uluwatu,
added that tourists that purchase the product
not only those that stay at hotel but also
many others that make transit in Bali like
this. European guests like best the product
of Uluwatu, then followed by Japanese, Taiwanese
and Korean. We offer standard price,
Suti remarked.(BTN/015)
