Ikat Gallery: antiques and high craftsmanship on Bali Island
#BulgariStories

It is the love for tradition, for Balinese civilization and culture that can be read in the choices made by the Ikat Gallery with its selection of the best artefacts from the island which help to capture the flourishing aspect of the local artisan tradition throughout history. Since 1980, the gallery has collected excellent objects of local production, starting from ikat fabrics and then specializing in antiques, jewellery, wooden artefacts and high quality products. Today the gallery space offers a welcoming and luxurious environment, with the possibility of admiring the vast collection of works from different parts of Bali and Indonesia and also purchasing pieces of considerable value. Among the fabrics and jewels there are also small and very particular objects that belong to intimacy such as hair clips, which belonged to women of the high social classes to participate in particular religious functions or earrings, a symbol of ancient beauty. There is no shortage of decorations and furniture that allow a journey into the past and present of elegant Balinese homes.
