SILK BAMBOO SHIBARI ROPE
Wrap yourself up in our yummy shibari bondage rope made of the softest bamboo. Smooth to the touch and incredibly versatile, we love wearing it to stand out at a festival but also to add a little extra flavour to the bedroom.
Shibari is the ancient art of binding and is literally translated as “to tie”. Beautifully intricate and even meditative, enthusiasts create complex arrangements of knots and patterns. Contrary to more ‘robust’ forms of constraint, shibari is not about intolerable pain and control but embraces trust with a partner at the centre of its foundation. The mind-body connection is heightened by the inclusion of rope play, and practising it can be a lifelong journey into perfecting your technique. Forgiving and fun, shibari is for everyone from day dot beginners to practised pros. Our soft Bamboo Shibari Rope comes in 6mm thickness and is available in 26.2ft/8m length, a great length if you are looking to indulge in shibari-styled rope bondage or creating rope body harnesses for raves and play.
Explore the art of Shibari with our collection of ropes and accessories designed for every level of experience. From soft bamboo and cotton for sensitive skin to textured jute and hemp for added grip, we’ve got something for everyone. Available in vibrant colours and various lengths, our ropes are strong, flexible, and versatile—designed to suit your aesthetic and play style.
Is it suitable for sensitive skin?
Our bamboo and cotton ropes are ideal for sensitive skin, offering a smooth, gentle texture. For jute or hemp lovers, we recommend a quick patch test to ensure you're comfortable with their natural grip.
Silk Bamboo Rope
Hand wash with cold water and a mild, non-abrasive soap to maintain the delicate fibres. Avoid machine washing or excessive heat, as it can weaken the rope. Lay flat or hang in a cool, dry place to air dry completely.
Polyester & Nylon Rope
Machine wash on a gentle cycle or hand wash with mild soap. These synthetic materials are durable and retain their vibrant colours well. Air dry thoroughly, keeping them away from heat sources to prevent warping or shrinkage.
Linen/Cotton Rope
Hand wash with cool water and mild soap to avoid shrinking or fibre damage. Lay flat to dry in a cool area to maintain the rope's structure and texture.
Jute Rope
Jute rope is a traditional favourite for shibari due to its strength and aesthetics. However, it requires more care:
- Cleaning: Avoid regular washing unless absolutely necessary. If cleaning is required, lightly dampen a cloth with water and wipe the surface. Allow to dry completely in a coiled or braided form to preserve its tension.
- Conditioning: To maintain its strength and softness, treat your jute rope with rope oil, such as jojoba oil or a specialised rope conditioner. Use a small amount (about the size of a coin) and gently run the rope through your hands to evenly distribute the oil. Avoid animal-based oils, as they can rot the fibres over time.
Hemp Rope
Similar to jute, hemp rope benefits from minimal washing. Lightly dampen and clean with a cloth when necessary. Dry thoroughly to avoid mould. Conditioning with rope oil will keep hemp soft and pliable. Store in a cool, dry place to maintain longevity.
Cotton Rope
Hand wash with cold water and mild soap for a gentle clean. Lay flat or hang to dry in a shaded, well-ventilated area. Avoid extended exposure to direct sunlight, which can weaken the fibres over time.
Metal Shibari Scissors
Keep your scissors sharp and functional by cleaning the blades after each use. Dry immediately to avoid rust, and apply a small amount of oil to the pivot point and blades for smooth operation. Store in a dry, safe place to protect against moisture and dulling.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
PU Vegan Leather Harnesses and Accessories: We’re gradually phasing out PU as we move towards offering 100% plant-based materials. That said, we may occasionally release small, exclusive drops of limited-edition colourways—so keep an eye out for these special releases!
Plant-Based Corn Vegan Leather Harnesses and Accessories: Restocks happen a few times per year. As a ready-to-wear, small-batch brand, we prioritise quality and thoughtful design over mass production. Every piece is designed in-house and made with care, which means the production process takes time. If you’ve been eyeing a particular style, colour, or size, secure it while it’s in stock, as restocks are limited and may take time to return! Best-selling colours and styles are more likely to remain in stock.
Shibari Rope: Restocks are done as needed, but these sell out fast! Some colours and lengths may take months to restock, so if you see one you love, don’t wait to grab it.
Intimates and Sleep: These collections are strictly limited edition and will not be restocked. Once they’re gone, they’re gone for good. Don’t miss your chance to own these one-of-a-kind pieces.
Pleasure Toys: These are evergreen products that will always stay in stock. You can shop anytime and count on your favourites being available.
-
Harnesses and Accessories: Finding your fit is simple! Our custom size range includes four adjustable options: Petite, Small, Mid, and Curve, each designed with inclusive measurements. Check the size chart under "Size Chart" on each product page for exact measurements.
You may also come across styles labeled as "Small/Mid" and "Plus." These are part of our previous sizing system—just refer to the size chart for precise measurements on these designs.
Intimates and Sleep: We cater to Australian standard sizes 6 through 26, with cup sizes ranging from A to H. Our pieces are true to size, but if you're unsure, each product page includes a detailed size chart for guidance.
Still unsure? Don’t stress—we’ve got you! Send us an email at hello@lolliwraps.com.au with your measurements and the style you're eyeing, and we’ll guide you to the best fit.
Made a mistake? No problem! Our 14-day exchange policy makes it easy to swap for the right size.

Learning Shibari, the Japanese art of rope bondage, can be a fun and rewarding journey. Safety is important when practicing Shibari, as it involves restraining a partner (or yourself) using ropes, and there is a risk of injury if not done correctly.
Research and Study:
Begin by researching Shibari to understand its history, cultural context, and different styles. Familiarise yourself with the philosophy behind Shibari, which emphasises trust, communication, and consent.
Safety First:
Before you start tying, you need to learn about Shibari safety practices. This includes understanding nerve anatomy, circulation, and the potential risks involved in rope bondage.
Study resources, books, or courses on Shibari safety to ensure you have a solid foundation in risk management.
Basic Knots and Techniques:
Learn the fundamental knots and techniques used in Shibari. These include the single-column tie, double-column tie, and various hitches and frictions.
Practice these knots until you can tie them securely and comfortably.
Rope Selection:
Choose appropriate ropes for Shibari and learn how to care for them. Learn more here!
Practice:
Start practising your knots and techniques on your own or with a willing partner. Practicing on yourself (self-tying) can also help you understand the sensations and limitations of the ties.
Resources and Courses:
Consider taking a Shibari course or workshop from a reputable instructor or Shibari academy. The Shibari Academy is one option, but there are many others available both online and in person.
Online tutorials, books, and forums can also be valuable resources for learning new techniques and getting inspiration.
Communication and Consent:
Always prioritise open communication and consent with your partner. Discuss boundaries, limits, and expectations before starting any Shibari session.
Safety Gear:
Invest in safety shears (rescue scissors) that can quickly cut through ropes in case of an emergency. Keep them readily accessible during your sessions.
Build Skills Gradually:
Shibari is an art that takes time to master. Start with simple ties and gradually progress to more complex patterns as you gain experience and confidence.
Community and Feedback:
Consider joining local or online Shibari communities or to connect with experienced practitioners. Receiving feedback and learning from others can greatly enhance your skills.
