Item details:
Women of the Bayei and Hambukushu tribal groups painstakingly create these one-of-a-kind pieces of functional artwork from ‘mokola’ palm tree fiber coil woven around grass or vine. The bark and roots from 2 different trees are used to make the dye colors, as are decomposing sorghum husks and shrub leaves. Most of these weavers are women working to support themselves and their families.
Value: $100.00
Minimum Bid: $50.00
