RAINBOW VALLEY – Handwoven Raw Silk Jacket

Echoes of Ancient Sandstone, Drenched in Desert Light

Not far from Alice Springs in the heart of the Northern Territory, lies one of Australia’s most breathtaking hidden gems—Rainbow Valley. Known as 'Wurre' by the Indigenous custodians of the land, this awe-inspiring sandstone bluff transforms under the golden hues of sunset, revealing its rich layers of red, orange, and ochre, shaped by time itself.

With over 40 archaeological sites, Rainbow Valley holds the secrets of millennia—petroglyphs and pictographs carved into the rock tell the stories of ancient life, while the iron-rich sandstone formations whisper of a wetter past, their deep stains creating the striking patterns that inspire this remarkable Joe Bananas weave.
