Nylon Bilum 2
Bilums are traditional, intricately-woven bags, made by women throughout Papua New Guinea using natural fibres and recycled nylons & acrylics. The complex and unique patterns are integral to bilums, and many are particular to specific communities - recording and expressing provenance, current events and familial stories, often with spiritual or symbolic significance.
Natural Fibre bilums are made from small trees and the weavers use natural plant-based dyes and as such are not designed to get wet. Please keep them dry.
Each piece is entirely one-of-a-kind, and comes with a hand-written card acknowledging the cooperative and province.
