This is a simple beautifully tightly woven Belt made from using hand woven Bush Fiber from the Sepik Region of Papua New Guinea. This belt is made with Bush Fibers with bush string ties. The "bush" rope used to weave the belt is made from 100% natural fiber using the traditional technique of hand rolling plant fibers into twine over the knee. The process is carried out by women who then weave them into a variety or bilums or belts. This is a man's dance belt used in ceremonies and special occasions. In some occasions when a family member dies, a female relative will make a belt worn to indicate they are in mourning. After the morning period, these belts are put away and they will wear again on the anniversary of their death. This is a unique and beautiful fiber belt that would be lovely addition to your collection.
