Bag Number 3306

 

  • The Tire Track Design mirrors the marks left in the mud by a bus’ tires. On the way to the bilum market, weavers check the tire tracks to determine when the next bus will arrive.
  • This Bilum is handwoven from acrylic and wool yarn as well as upcycled knitwear using traditional weaving techniques.
  • Medium size body and long strap length.

  • Adornments sold separately.


38cm wide
33cm high
90cm strap

This Bilum was lovingly woven by Tama Jackson. Tama lives with her husband and son in Fanuifa, a small village in Goroka. Tama uses the income she earns from Bilum to support her family and provide schooling for her son. Her signature pattern is the Kundu design woven in vibrant hues.
