Crochet and Braids | 5 days
Each piece is hand-crocheted stitch by stitch, a technique that allows our artisans to build form and structure entirely by hand. The rhythm of the crochet hook creates raffia's signature texture—dense, considered, and remarkably durable. It's a skill that takes years to master and hours to execute, with no two pieces ever quite identical.
BAVATA is designed in Sydney and hand made at our family workshop in Madagascar.

Handcrafted in Madagascar, In Small Batches
Behind every piece is a family in Madagascar — a workshop, a weaver, and a tradition that stretches back long before us. We work in small batches on purpose, because quality can't be hurried. The slight variations you might notice, in texture, in weave, in tone, are the fingerprints of the hands that made it. We think that's something worth celebrating.
