This antique Indonesian Sumba ikat textile is a captivating handwoven piece made from pure natural cotton, originating from the island of Sumba in eastern Indonesia. The textile features bold, symmetrical bands with repeated anthropomorphic motifs likely stylised ancestral or guardian figures—framed by vertical geometric patterns in earthy tones of brown, ochre, grey, and ivory. Created using the intricate ikat dyeing technique, where threads are resist-dyed before weaving, this textile reflects deep cultural symbolism and ritual significance. The figures convey spiritual meaning, often associated with protection, heritage, and identity within Sumbanese tradition. Finished with braided fringe tassels, this textile is a striking example of Indonesian craftsmanship and a powerful expression of indigenous artistry and storytelling.

Authentic vintage and antique Ikat textiles are handwoven with cotton. Each one is an exceptional work of art and unique.

Pictures are taken in natural light to portray the most realistic colours possible. Due to the handmade and preloved nature, slight imperfections and flaws are not defects.

Our textiles are professionally cleaned.
