Meticulously made by the skilled weaver Gwenyth Manakgu, this Woven Kids Necklace or Wall Décor is created using the age-old methods of collecting kunngobarn (pandanus) with a special manmarli hook.
Step into that world of weaving and material gathering that is not just an art, it’s a tradition called “women’s business”. This tradition is passed down from generation to generation, not only creating wonderful objects but also paying tribute to the ancient customs of the Kakadu/West Arnhem.
Features:
- Natural Adornments: After the harvest of pandanus, Gwenyth Manakgu carefully dries it and decorates it in a beautiful way using natural colors from the country’s foraging.
- Versatility: It is a functional Kid's Necklace as well as a Wall Décor piece with an aesthetic African touch.
- Connection to Nature: This choice of materials is a testament to the harmonized relationship between the art and the surrounding environment.
