About Artisana
Artisana provides showroom and marketplace services for the artisans of Indonesia, and in particular Bali. Our mission is to foster and promote the traditional activities of local artisans to help preserve the skills they learned as children. These skills are dying in our wider community. You cannot find these skills in most western countries and in countries such as Indonesia where these skills of working with wood, stone and other natural materials still exist today, they are also under pressure.
