Before writing, there were message sticks.

Bantimita — meaning 'Message Stick' — honours one of the oldest forms of Aboriginal communication. Carved, painted, and burned with meaning, message sticks were carried by hand across Country to announce ceremonies, extend invitations, resolve disputes, and share news. The horizontal carved lines woven through this artwork are a direct echo of those inscriptions, ancient words made visible.

A piece that carries the weight of history and the beauty of a living tradition.

Artwork Story

Bantimita - Message Stick

This artwork is symbolic of Aboriginal message sticks, depicted by the horizontal carved lines within the work. Messages were painted and inscribed on a stick, which was then transported by hand. Typical messages inscribed on the stick by painting, carving or burning would be announcements of ceremonies, disputes, invitations, warnings, meetings, events and happenings.

Stunning!

These cushion covers (I bought 5 assorted designs) are absolutely stunning! The designs are so beautiful and the quality is impeccable. So very happy with how they look. 100% recommend.

Really beautiful product

I saw Saretta Art & Design products online. I don't often buy online because I like to see before I buy but I took a risk because I loved the colours and the designs. They are beautiful and beautifully finished. I am about to order 6 more cushion covers and will be buying more after Christmas. Thank you, Saretta, for an excellent product.

Beautiful Cushion Covers

I recently purchased cushion covers in 4 different designs and each one is absolutely stunning. They're very well made with good quality fabric and the colours are bright and vibrant. I chose Borii Parai, Bantimita, Yapung and Karilya and am very happy with my choice. Thank you Saretta!

Absolutely in love with Saretta Designs

Have totally renovated my home and floors and carpets finally done. I needed a splash of colour for my rooms. Found Saretta Designed cushion covers and received them in the post this week. Could not contain my excitement when I had them in place. Beautiful quality and the design and colours are true to online graphics. Love love love them. Ok they are a bit pricey but so worth it as they are authentic Indigenous art and designed with love. Just perfect. Now looking to buy more Saretta Designs. Trust me. You won’t regret your purchases.

something different in cushions

Purchased 2 cushion covers. Delighted with them, colours are great. They also match a small rug I'd bought elsewhere too. Very happy. Thankyou

Just gorgeous!

I just love my Bantimita cushions. The fabric is beautiful and of very high quality. Highly recommend.

I will scream your name from the tree tops

I just wanted to say how very happy I am with my beautiful cushion covers I received today. the order was placed 5 days ago and received today. The quality is just amazing. I am so happy with the vivid colours and beautiful material. these cushion covers are gorgeous and I can't wait to put them on my outdoor setting - they are just going to look lovely. thank you so much. Would love some 45 cm turquoise cushion covers as well, but currently not available.
