Give a gift of substance - with one of Mainie’s luxurious new, lightweight silk scarves crafted by the traditional artisans of the fabled Silk Road and featuring authentic Aboriginal Dreamtime stories in sundrenched, glorious colour from Australia’s red centre.
Mainie is a new Australian label of silk scarves, wraps and tops that was launched online and in select retail stores in August this year. The maiden collection comprises 12 stunning designs, all of which feature authentic hand-painted Aboriginal artworks by the women Warlpiri artists of the Tanami Desert region of central Australia.
“As a piece of wearable art that bears ancient Dreamtime stories preserved and shared by Australia’s Aboriginal peoples, Mainie makes a meaningful gift that can also be worn a multitude of ways depending on the wearer’s creativity. Drape, wrap, tie and knot as an accessory for casual flair or night time glamour,” said Mainie’s creator and founder, Charmaine Saunders.
“As a travel companion, I absolutely love my Mainie scarves – they are hard to beat; reducing to nothing in hand luggage while providing a versatile ‘covering’ that will also ‘refresh’ an outfit within seconds.”
For online purchases, Mainie provides free postage to anywhere in Australia along with a provenance that underscores its ethical, Free Trade policies. Mainie scarves are available online at www.mainie.com or from Discover and Discover Indigenous at Cairns Airports and Evert Fine Jewellery in Cairns which is situated on the corner of Abbott and Spence Street.
What is so special about Mainie?
Mainie is a label strongly committed to Fair Trade principles. All artworks have been acquired ethically under license through the internationally acclaimed Warlukurlangu Art Centre (warlu.com).
