A weaver is bent over the swathe of bright hues that border the patterned body of the glorious ‘Telia’ fabric. When asked from where he learnt this craft; he looks up and answers with a smile, “I learnt it from my father, and he; from his great grandfather”. The musical ‘tak-tak’ of the loom is resonating in the Indian clothing industry for hundreds of years. What’s so special about the Telia fabric?

Along with the traditions of indigenous Australians, the country also embraces the ethnicity of people migrating from other countries. Australian immigrants have their own values and habits, and these are squared with the land that hosts them. While the individual traditions of other countries remain identifiable, the country also ensures unity among the people.
