ABOUT THE WEAVERS

Your Among Equals Bilum bag is a joyful work of art, handcrafted by a female artisan living in regions throughout Papua New Guinea, including the Highlands, Telefomin and along the Sepik River. These weavers have a unique flair for colour and pattern and their vibrant designs capture their spiritual and cultural heritage. Working with unravelled yarns from woollen jumpers or handwoven fibres sourced from surrounding vegetation, along with the natural dyes made from plants, ochres and berries, each bag tells a story of strength and hope.
