About this product
Handwoven Pendant Light – A Unique Collaboration with Yolngu Weavers
Discover the beauty and cultural significance of our social impact pendant lights, handwoven by Yolngu artists from Elcho Island Arts in Arnhem Land. Each pendant is part of the exclusive Yuta Badayala lighting collection, developed in partnership with Koskela.
This pioneering collaboration fuses traditional Indigenous weaving techniques with contemporary design, resulting in lighting pieces that are both stunning and deeply meaningful. Every pendant is individually crafted using pandanus and bush string, naturally dyed with seasonal plant-based colours. Because each Yolngu artist has the freedom to interpret the form, no two pendants are the same – each one is a one-of-a-kind expression of culture, craftsmanship, and creativity.
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 Yuta Badayala pendant, you are supporting First Nations artists, preserving traditional weaving practices, and investing in handcrafted, ethical, Australian-made design.
