Although Indonesia has an excellent crafts people and an abundant resource of raw materials, there are many manufacturers who do not meet the standards required to insure the exporting of reliable quality products. It is in our view vital that orders are thoroughly quality controlled by an independent party before final shipping. We at Graven Image works very closely with suppliers to ensure that only merchantable standards of quality are applied.
Most products, materials depending , can take anything from one to six weeks to complete. Select the products you require and leave us to do the rest. You are then free to return to your base to deal with the running of your business

With the current and seemingly prolonged global economic down turn, Indonesia has never been a better location to source from. According to respected market analysts, Indonesian ranks above China with regards to competitive pricing. It is a point of fact that product designs originating from Indonesia are now made in China. However these Chinese facsimiles can never quite escape from their “Made in China” look & finish. The strength of Indonesian products are that the materials used in the manufacturing process are unique to the Indonesian terrain and are mostly “hand made” by local crafts people.

Products are tested independently from the manufacturer

There are a few local Agents who can service your requirements with distinction. However, recently there have been numerous new local operators setting up as Buying Agents. Many of them have no experience or idea about supplying to the different marketing and selling environments. Almost all have only local reference with regards to global interior designing and no knowledge of merchandising and professional retailing practices. While they may be quoting at lower service fees, in our experience, their level of service which includes, limited language communication, clerical errors in paper work and low quality controlling standards. We can testify to this development as we have several customers who have migrated to Graven Image because of problems in this regard, therefore we must offer buyers caution
Getting around Bali for the 1st time can be both an exciting and daunting experience.
