Description

The artwork in these T Towels is inspired by the spirit of kinship. Melanie Hava was raised in the outback where she would often see emus travelling through the long grasses.

Occasionally, she would observe two males joining forces to protect their chicks. This banding together in kinship to feed and protect their mob echoes the way aboriginals once lived.

Always prompt and efficient service.

The gifts were amazing. I especially loved the tea light holder and I took the cup and coaster to work with me the next day. I was a bit disappointed with the thickness of the tea towel, but the design and colour are amazing!

Artist Bio

Melanie Hava

Melanie Hava has always known she would be an artist, and started out selling her work at markets as a teenager. As a Mamu Aboriginal woman from Dugul-barra and Wari-barra family groups in the Wet Tropics of Far-North Queensland, reef and rainforest have always been prevalent in her work. Austrian patterns and use of gold leaf became later inspirations after travelling to meet her paternal family in Austria.

Cement kinship with the perfect gift

The blend of Aboriginal and Austrian influence produces unparalleled art that in turn creates a perfectly unique gift. Her collection at Koh Living is inspired by the spirit of Kinship. In the outback, she would often see emus travelling through long grasses, and occasionally, two males would join forces to protect their chicks. This banding together in kinship to feed and protect their mob echoes her own Aboriginal culture and is reflected in her work.

Make your loved ones smile

“I want people to look at my work and feel joy – if they’re having a bad day and they happen to see my work, that they’d feel a bit better”. Sharing Melanie’s vision, we know our gifts put a smile on your loved ones face. What better way to tell someone you love them than a beautiful and practical gift with a meaningful story behind it?
