Lurik is our dream
By far, lurik is sold as a sheet of cloth only. One of our dreams is making woven cloth, especially lurik, as daily life style. This will make lurik more popular with the society at large. Look at Lawe products catalog and find unique style with ethnic nuance.
`Lurik` future looms bright
New look
The striped woven material known as lurik is often considered boring and worn only by the older generation. But the fabric has entered a new, promising chapter, and is being turned into attractive and colourful products.
Modern lurik, with a wide variety of designs, is now being produced by the Lawe cooperative, which belongs to an association of Yogyakarta weavers called the Lawe Association, set up in 2004.
In the past, the fabric came mostly in dark colors and used to be appreciated simply for its functional value - being worn by people taking part in traditional rituals or ceremonies.
