Mishka + Mikki

Location :

Welcome to Mishka+Mikki (Portarlington) formerly Inika Imports - Gifts & Imports started its operation in 2008 in Stawell. The products are sourced mainly from Bali and some other parts of Indonesia, India, Morocco and Mexico. Our endeavor is to support the local people, generating a product supply system to provide opportunities for ongoing employment and share their talents through our outlets. Wherever possible products are hand made to our specifications. The Balinesse consider art to be a natural activity. They are master in expressing their religious beliefs and rituals into items of great artistic value; from simple masks, statues and jewellery, to wall sized panels using materials such as wood, stone, coral, bone, silver and gold. Painting and performance complete the picture. It is often said that there are as many artists in Bali as there are people. We continue to be amazed at the skills and diversity of the artistic works the Balinese people produce. Our business has established business relationships that directly support the Balinese people. We especially enjoy the opportunity to encourage small local villages to prosper from an opportunity to export directly to Australia via our business. Such initiatives provide greater income potential for many of the skilled artists and craftspeople we come into contact with. I hope you enjoy your "taste of Bali" and please don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or have ideas to share. Michelle and Michael Rathgeber.
