This cotton oven mitt features Josette Papajua's beautiful design and has been made by ethical and fair trade partners Better World Arts.
It's made with thick quilted cotton that provides just the padding you need to protect your hands when getting baked goods out of the oven.
Did you know? Better World Arts works with Australian Aboriginal artists from remote communities across Australia, from Arnhem Land to Central and the Western Desert regions, from rural locations and cities. The artists benefit from royalties paid to them every month.
They also work with traditional artisans from remote regions in Kashmir, Peru, West Bengal, Uttar Pradesh and Nepal (Tibetan refugees), creating culturally appropriate opportunities for them that help them supplement their rural income.
During Ceremony on the Tiwi Islands a series of “Yoi”, dances are performed, some are totemic (matrilineal) and others act out newly composed songs. Participants are painted with turtiyanginari (natural ochres) transforming the dancers and protecting them against mapurtiti (spirits). These designs are collectively called Jilamara.
