Makers are adopting patterns and shapes that reflect the country’s history and culture to set their products apart in the international market.

Indonesia craft gift suppliers are incorporating themes that reflect the country’s rich multicultural heritage in mobile phone cases, bags and other products for the modern consumer.

Buddha and characters from the epic Ramayana are among the figures typically found in wooden carvings, metal sculptures and paintings. The naga, a mythical serpent, is also a popular figure in various handicrafts.

Batik patterns are another popular motif, especially in bags, shawls and other fabric-based products. They can also be seen in ceramic, wooden and leather handicrafts.

Rising eco-consciousness among buyers is prompting makers to use recycled or upcycled materials in their products. Among the manufacturing inputs being used in line with this strategy are coconut shells, cornhusks and reclaimed wood.
