Display some cultural heritage and artistic flavour in your space through Gwenyth Manakgu’s Woven Necklace/Wall Decor. These woven masterpieces from Kakadu National Park reflect a deep bond between the people of the land.
Using a special hooked stick called “manmarli”, proficient weavers collect the freshest kunngobarn (pandanus) following a long-standing tradition. The strands are harvested with care to dry them out before they are dressed in natural colours depicting the splendour of nature.
Features:
- Indigenous Elegance Collection: Gwenyth Manakgu is the artist who has handcrafted this artistry using foraged native elements in Kakadu National Park within the country.
- Legacy of “Women's Business”: This art form reflects the ‘Women’s business’ tradition, and keeps alive the ancient methods transmitted from generation to generation.
- Cultural Reverence Décor: Gwenyth Manakgu’s piece not only acts as an amazing decoration but also recognizes the importance of gathering materials and acknowledges its cultural significance.
