Lawe Lurik Community

"The Lawe Luric Community seeks to preserve the hand-weaving traditions of Indonesia and simultaneously empower women, encouraging them to contribute improving their livelihood..."

Lawe Lurik Community was formed by five women — Adinindyah, Westiani Agustin, Rina Anita, Ita Natalia and Paramita... Iswari, people concerned with our cultural heritage, especially our handweaving traditions. They want to transform traditional fabrics into something useful in daily life, so that people will recognize and appreciate our traditional fabrics better than before.

In Javanese, lawe means 'thread' while lurik means 'stripe.' The Lawe Luric Community seeks to preserve the handweaving traditions of Indonesia and simultaneously empower women, encouraging them to contribute improving their livelihood, and be a part of our country's prosperity.

At first we used traditional fabrics from Jogjakarta called lurik, which are mostly dark colored but customers didn't really like it because they thought it wasn't attractive and felt gloomy. We informed the weavers and suggested they try weaving brighter lurik fabrics, but they weren't sure about customers liking it and they were afraid to lose. Then at Lawe Lurik Community, we received an order of approximately 30 meters of lurik fabric in bright shades of yellow, blue, white, green and orange, and that convinced them.

We have some competitors that try to imitate our products at lower prices, but their quality is below our standard. Our commitment is to make good quality bags and accessories with reasonable prices. It takes time to ensure that our designs are unique and different. Some think handwoven fabrics are just the same as mass produced fabrics from factories so we need to explain to them that we continue to use traditional methods, there is no machine work, and this can be reflected in our prices.

We offer women new opportunities to increase their income and thus their bargaining power in their families. We also give opportunities to people with disabilities to intern at Lawe Lurik Community.

The positive response to our work motivates artisans, most of them homemakers, to continue working, thus ensuring their livelihood.

In 2009, we received the Wanita Wirausaha Femina (Women Entrepreneurship Magazine) for third place.

There used to be only one lurik workshop in Jogjakarta that made good quality fabrics, but the earthquake of 2006 severely damaged it, and it seemed that they would not be able to continue their work. Lawe Lurik Community bought all the remaining fabric and transformed it into some useful items that were then sold to raise funds for a program called 'Weaving Hope.' We gave back the profits we received to the weavers, who used it to build temporary shelters for those who lost their homes, as well as to support their daily needs during the recovery process.

Lawe Lurik Community consists of 13 people in management, and we collaborate with more than 30 artisan weavers. We'd like to preserve the handweaving tradition so it doesn't become extinct by designing handbags that showcase the beauty of handwoven lurik. Working with you, we hope to take our products worldwide.

BUST / CHEST

Measure around the fullest part of chest under the arms and over the shoulder blades keeping the tape measure level.

WAIST

Measure around the smallest part of the waist keeping the tape measure comfortably loose. Most garments use the low waist measurement noted below.

SLEEVE

Belts with buckles are measured in inches that correspond to a waist size however, most people do not wear belts on the waist, they wear them closer to the hips. A buckle belt measurement is take from the end of the "pin" of the buckle to the middle hole on the belt. Generally there are 5 holes for size adjustment, with a 1" space between each, so the middle hole will the be average size of the belt.

For at tie belt (no buckle) measure the belt portion end to end and half of the tie portion. This again is the medium size of the belt.

For a soft fabric tie belt it can be called "1 size fits most" and the entire length of the belt should be measured and listed.
