Each Among Equals Bilum bag tells a story. The Skin Pik design tells the story of how economically disadvantaged women are treated back in the village. When the women come together to feast, those of lower status are given only squares of the pig’s skin. The Skin Pik bilum design is a fierce reclamation of this powerful cultural symbol.
This Bilum is handwoven from acrylic and wool yarn as well as upcycled knitwear using traditional weaving techniques. A kaleidoscope of colour to lift any outfit and add some fun to your wardrobe. The Large size body and long strap length gives flexabilty and handmade pom and tassel with beaded highlights adds a statement.
