Description

For the Toba people, Ragi Idup is a particularly important ulos used in several customary occasions. It may be used as ulos passamot, a gift from the bride’s parents to the groom’s parents, with the prerequisite that the gifters must already have grandchildren or marpahompu

In other celebratory times such as birthdays or promotions, it may be given as ulos pasu-pasu as a gift of prayer. However, it is also used in more solemn situations given to the deceased as ulos saput only if they have grandchildren.

This product is made by one of our collaborative partners as part of our commitment in supporting micro enterprises and small businesses.
