About this product
Handwoven Pendant Light – An Ethical Collaboration with Tjanpi Desert Weavers
Discover the beauty and cultural significance of our handwoven pendant lights, created in collaboration with the Tjanpi Desert Weavers—a First Nations social enterprise established by the NPY Women’s Council. Representing over 400 women from 26 remote communities across the NPY region, Tjanpi supports economic independence through the traditional practice of weaving with locally harvested grasses (tjanpi).
Each pendant is part of the exclusive Tili Wiru (meaning “beautiful light”) lighting collection, developed in partnership with Koskela. These pieces showcase the vibrancy of Tjanpi weaving, often incorporating bold colour, beads, and feathers—hallmarks of the artists' creative expression.
Koskela purchases each completed light directly from the artist, removing financial risk while ensuring fair compensation. Art centres receive a management fee to reflect their vital coordination role, supporting long-term sustainability. Additionally, Koskela donates 1% of all product sales to social impact initiatives with our First Nations partners.
By choosing a Tili Wiru wall light, you are supporting First Nations artists, preserving traditional weaving practices, and investing in handcrafted, ethical, Australian-made design.

Product information
Made completely from natural or
reclaimed materials, it is best for your
lampshade to avoid harsh sunlight.
Pandanus and bush string are also
dyed using a variety of natural
materials such as roots and berries.
Over time, fading may occur. This is a
process inherent to a natural product
and should not be viewed as a fault.
We suggest dusting lightly and
regularly with a feather duster. Always
switch off the electricity supply before
cleaning.
