Isle Of Rataa

This company was founded by two friends, Heshani Bogollagama and Nilusha Shivaraj, in 2020. They duo wanted to engage rural artisans to promote traditional Sri Lanka handicrafts with a contemporary twist. Inspired by the island’s historical crafts and the skills of the artisans, they wanted these centuries old crafts to be accessible to the everyday consumer. Thus began the love affair of heritage design in modern ways. Want to add a little art to your dinner table? Invest in their artistic table mats.
